Philadelphia Pavement Quilt
Unknown Quilt Maker
Circa 1930
84 x 98 inches
Origin Unknown; Found in Nebraska
In Excellent Condition, apparently unused, this variation of "Philadelphia Pavement" is precisely pieced and beautifully hand quilted.
The thousands of small squares are in a variety of printed cotton fabrics of the 1930-40 era, and are surrounded by a double border. This one is larger than many quilts of the time, and the generous measurements would work well on a modern bed.
Superb hand quilting throughout, in a crosshatch that mimics the grids of the interior patchwork. The maker added elaborate, curving designs in the borders. A gift quality quilt.
