This quilt is my new FAVORITE! The unexpected color scheme is so interesting and everything coordinates in a unique way. The origin of this quilt began with the crab in 2021. Exactly one year ago I was doing a 30-day creative challenge and I developed a series of critters. The crab was one of them! I made a BIG
The beautiful antique quilt was handmade in 1890 as stated in hand embroidered thread on the top. Silks and silk velvets were the fabrics of well to do families prior to the 1890’s. This Victorian crazy quilt, having been made in 1890 is comprised of wonderfully made silks and silk velvets. This quilt is gorgeous. It is edged with black velvet and the backing is a satiny paisley print. Each piece of this patchwork quilt is made from quality fabric probably salvaged from fabric used to make ballgowns in the 1800s. Each piece has hand embroidered embellishments between pieces as well as some decorative elements within. If interested feel free to Message me to facetime or zoom to get a closer look. The surface of some fabrics are shredding, but none are causing structural issues or are visually unappealing. Measures 62.5 " X 74" For some history: Crazy quilts were popular from the late 1800s through the early 1900s. They featured irregular shaped pieces of fabric sewn to a foundation fabric and then outlined with embroidery stitches. The most elaborate crazy quilts were made of silk satins and velvets and heavily embroidered with images of flowers and animals. Most are darker, rich colored fabrics that echo the Queen of England's fashions due to her mourning of her husband during this period. This quilt boasts over 30 different stitches. These quilts were created using the block formation. Created with 12 blocks apx 15 1/2” x 16" blocks, the edge of each block being embellished with various stitches. This quilt was embellished with beautifully adorned flowers. The silk velvet border appears to have been used prior to the edging of this quilt. Because of its size, this is a wonderful quilt to hang in the home or use as a decorative element on the bottom of a bed. Shown in pictures on the lower 2/3 of a king size bed.
