Moss Rose Quilt

Moss Rose Quilt

Unknown Quilt Maker
Circa 1860
84 x 84  inches
Origin Unknown; Found in Idaho

Very fine quilting covers the surface of this mid-19th century Rose applique quilt.  The quilt maker worked in tiny stitches measuring about 10 to the inch (counting one side only), and made elaborate designs including feathers and triple rod lines.

S/he created the Roses with both applique and reverse-applique techniques, and added a fine white blanket stitch to outline them, even those in the elaborate border. All hand done.

The quilt came to me washed ... bright and clean  A few small light spots remain here and there. The quilt is in Excellent Condition with strong, intact fabrics and intact embroidery.
