That quilt really is enormous. Lucky you to have this heirloom:thumbup:

I made a mistake on the size...should say 200 centimeters, not inches!
|
Even so, it's still big!
Whoever made it, had a good eye for design and color! |
I think it's interesting that the light colored blocks of fabric are almost always on the same diagonal across the quilt...with just a few exceptions...wonder what happened there...
|
You have a beautiful treasure.
|
That’s the type of quilt I grew up with! I have one about the same pattern and used to tatters but I won’t get rid of it! Yours looks to be in good shape, treasure it!
|
A lovely treasure! :)
|
You have a treasure for sure! From the fabrics, I can see this quilt dates to the mid 1800's, and it looks in great shape. Take good care of it!

It may or may not have been intentional, but I like it the way it is. |
That is a special, special treasure. I love antique quilts. We have several that my husband's grandmother made in the '30's and they are truly treasures. Love yours!
