Chinese Coins Quilt
Unidentified Quilt Maker

Here's one to cuddle up in. Probably originally made for a twin bed, it's also a good size for the perfect lap robe. It would fit nicely into a narrow space on your wall. I have a few of those.
The center section is surrounded by inner borders of more "coins." And, the whole center is framed with a cotton print in two color ways. So many wonderful cotton prints from the era.
Lightweight ~ with a thin batting. The hand quilting is beautiful, executed in tiny, even stitches in diagonal rows.
