Description

This handmade patchwork utility quilt features a postage stamp style grid construction. The top is composed of numerous small fabric squares in a diverse array of mid-20th-century patterns, including various florals, stripes, ginghams, polka dots, and solid colors. The fabrics are a mix of cotton and cotton-blend textiles. The piece is finished with a solid purple fabric binding along all four edges. The quilt is tied rather than stitched to secure the internal batting; small purple yarn or thread ties are distributed across the surface and are visible on the reverse side. The backing consists of a solid-colored fabric in a neutral light olive or beige tone.
