"WOVEN" LOG CABIN
Unknown Quilt Maker
Collected in Michigan
58 x 84 inches
Circa 1890
Silks, velvets, brocades, satins
Stunning Graphic Effect
At the end of the 19th century,
a Victorian quilt maker made this unusual Log Cabin variation.
She organized her colors to create a fabulous "woven" effect,
something we don't often see in the Log Cabin genre.
The size and shape of this example make it a great wall hanging,
the best use for it.
It has been been professionally prepared for hanging
with a cotton sleeve on the back.
While it displays beautifully,
it has some shattered silks, and is in that way imperfect.
See detail photos below.
The other fabrics are strong and sturdy.
The two black side panels are completely intact and add a strong visual finish.
Price: $625
