Mennonite String Star Small Quilt
This quilt was purchased in the 1980s and the receipt calls it a Mennonite Crazy Star Quilt. It measures 30x30 inches. The 8 pointed star is string pieced in rainbow solid fabrics like a Joseph's Coat, and set against a bright yellow ground. There is a narrow inner border comprised of the same fabrics, and a yellow outer border. It is hand pieced and hand quilted. Thin batting with an 1880s brown print reverse. The edge is finished with a solid red fabric and applied by hand. It is in very good condition. If you have any doubt, please ask questions! We will provide extra pictures, or can schedule an in person or video conference preview at your convenience. In house Flat Rate Shipping of $15 is a domestic shipping estimate for first quilt and includes insurance. We will gladly combine multiple lots for your convenience and economy.
