Vintage Quilts - Purple Pansies
Vintage Quilts - Purple Pansies
This a 61- x 74-inch handmade quilt. The quilt top is hand appliqued using cotton fabric with an added border around the vintage panel. The quilt is hand bound and uses 80/20 batting.
This vintage panel of 12 purple pansies (circa 1960) was hand appliqued using a blanket stitch in black thread and some accents. The yellow background and purple sashing finishes the center panel. I added the remaining green, purple, and yellow floral flying geese borders to wrap around the panel. The white backing with various flowers of the quilt is a cotton blend and is completed with a floral quilted pattern.
Ready to ship. The quilt in the picture will be the quilt you receive, each quilt is handmade, so they are all unique - no two are alike. Additionally, with handmade items there is always an element of human error, whether it be a missed stitch or overlapping design, yet for me the beauty is in the imperfection.
