Antique Peony







Peony..a quilt from our collection, made in New Hampshire in early 1900's. The quilt is hand quilted with templates from the quilter's own environment...eg the donut cutter and the leaf from the yard. This quilt has Turkey red and a green that has faded to tan. This quilt was purchased from the same estate as the brown Lone Star quilt in another post. It was purchased in Miami from a dealer 20 some years ago.
