Description: This exquisite antique quilt, identified as an 1880s Double 9-Patch pattern with postage stamp-sized pieces, is a beautifully preserved piece of 19th-century quilting artistry. Discovered at an antique store in Pennsylvania and carefully maintained in a non-smoking home since the 1980s, this quilt is crafted from soft cotton fabric in a charming color palette of ivory, sage green, and red and white gingham. Details:Dimensions: 74” x 69”Stitching Quality: Hand-stitched with approximately 9-10 stitches per inch, showcasing careful, even workmanship.Materials: Soft cotton fabric in ivory, sage green, and a vintage red and white gingham, with a coordinating 3” gingham border and a delicate 0.75” green plaid inner border.Batting: Lightweight and even, lending a soft yet durable feel.Condition: This quilt is in very good vintage condition overall, with some frayed seams and a few delicate areas that could benefit from gentle repair (photos included for reference). The front shows mild fading consistent with age, while the back has a few small areas of discoloration. No odors or signs of misuse. History & Provenance: This quilt was purchased by my partner’s mother, a dedicated quilt enthusiast, in an antique store in Pennsylvania. It has since been stored and cared for meticulously, retaining its structure and charm as a well-loved vintage heirloom. This unique piece would make a striking addition to any farmhouse or rustic decor, with its authentic craftsmanship and timeless appeal. It's ideal for collectors, decorators, or anyone with an appreciation for historical quilts. The photos capture much of its beauty, though it truly shines in person as a warm and nostalgic reminder of early American quilting. I'm not a quilter or experienced collector but I've done my best to describe the quilt to the best of my ability. I'm happy to provide more photographs and ask any questions (including asking my partner's mother who has owned this quilt for many years) if you need more information before purchasing.
