Description: This is very old light weight hand stitched family heirloom quilt. The design has 49 red baskets or flowers in vases( 7 up and 7 across). The reverse side is solid white. It was stored in my parent's linen closet since the 1970s. The last time it was probably washed was in the 1960s before my mother received it from her aunts. When I received it recently I noticed near the hem at the corner it was noticeably darker(tan light brown); so washed it in cold water and dried it on the clothes line, It improved some but it still isn't the same as the rest of the white in the quilt. I didn't want to ruin the red or set it in the darker shade permanently by doing anything more.Besides the darkening at the hem near the there is no damage to the fabric or worn areas. For combined shipping on multiple items: select "Request New Total"(found at the top of the shopping cart). All inventory is very clean smoke-free. Please contact me with your questions, I’m happy to help! Thank you for looking! Please look closely at the photos they are part of the description.
