Vintage 1940s Diagonal Stripe Block Patchwork Quilt Top

From the 1940s, this vintage quilt top features a diagonal stripe block pattern. It features a lovely variety of flour sack cloth and other cottons along with a few scattered pieces of linen. It's a bit clumsily done, but in a charming way - mostly hand sewn but with a few random machine sewn seams, some puckering at seams, and not a lot of uniformity in the blocks. The blue fabric that frames the blocks has been torn off of two sides. This guy deserves some TLC to be finished as a quilt or something else entirely. It has a few small spots, and two small holes less than 1/4" in the blue fabric. No loose seams, but some hanging threads here and there.

Quilt Dimensions: 94 x 62

• All quilts are vintage ranging from 45 to 95 years old. They have been well-loved and will show wear from use which may include: loose/open seams, shattered patches, small holes or tears, fading, spots.
• We try to point out any major wear, but every instance of normal wear will probably not be pictured. Instead we try to give a good description of overall condition so you know what to expect.
• All of our quilts, unless noted, have been hand washed with mild detergent and laid out to dry. They are washed to refresh them, not with the goal of spot or stain lightening/removal. You may be able to lighten stains with additional treatment, but it's unlikely that you will be able to completely remove stains of this age.
• All measurements should be viewed as approximate with a margin of error of 1 inch.
• Standard US mattress dimensions are as follows. Use this as a reference to understand how a piece might fit on your bed: Twin - 39 x 75, Full - 54 x 75, Queen - 60 x80, King - 76 x 80.
