CRAZY LONE STAR
Unknown Quilt Maker
Collected in Canada

 Commotion Within Boundaries!

A riot of color and shapes, all contained in a traditional eight point "Lone Star,"
 its movement further embraced by strong Sawtooth borders (of two sizes).

We purchased this treasure from a seller in Canada, who believed it
was made there.

Quilt dates to around 1900 and is in Excellent Condition.
Flat, square, lightweight, and sturdy.
Recently hand washed and blocked by a professional.

All cottons, with a cozy cotton flannel back.  Well made; separately bound.
Good Size for Hanging:  64 x 68 inches.


Hand quilted in Clam Shell or Baptist Fan designs,
which only adds to the exuberance!

Price:  $485
