Graphic wool quilt in a Wagon Wheel design, with each Wheel floating on a Crazy Quilt ground. Bordered on all four sides in geometric crazy quilt style. 

Excellent condition with a some small holes here and there.  These are visible only upon close examination. The photos represent the overall impact, while some of the close up shots show the holes.  Please look carefully.

Every seam here is hand embroidered, adding to the movement and playful quality of the quilt.  Hand quilted but very sparely. The back is a light cotton floral print.
