Vintage 1940s X Pattern Patchwork Quilt

This quilt was hand sewn and hand quilted in the 1940s, but somewhere in the 1950s-60s it was rebacked with blue rose flannel. This new back and binding was machine sewn. The 1940s top features an assortment of flour sack cloth and other cottons, along with a blue and white stripe that feels like a blend. There are some fun patterns including on very charming one with sailboats. It is a medium weight quilt with thin interior layer, but the flannel backing will make it warm and cozy. It can be seen from one of the open seams that the inner layer is a resourceful mix of repurposed home linens. It is in overall good vintage condition, with just a few open seams, one dime size hole in the top, and a few light spots typical for age.

Quilt Dimensions: 88 x 80

• 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.
