Description

Stunning Vintage 1931 Cathedral Window Quilt – Handmade – 8 ft × 5 ft approx. – Multicolor FeedSack Fabrics – Hand-Stitched and Dated by Maker (“L. P. Coles”) This is an exceptional, fully handmade Cathedral Window quilt, begun on April 15, 1931, as embroidered on the back by the original maker L. P. Coles.

Key Features: • Authentic 1931 quilt with hand-embroidered date + maker’s name • Hand-sewn cathedral window construction (no batting) • Large size: approx. 8 ft × 5 ft (96 inches × 60 inches approximately) See pics for exact measurements. • Hundreds of colorful vintage prints including feedsack florals and novelty fabrics • Completely handmade • Good vintage condition for a 90+ year-old quilt • From a smoke-free environment
