One Of My Antique Pennsylvania Quilts

I'll show you more quilts later, most are in storage on the mainland out of this humidity.  For today, I found this one and brought it out onto the deck to air out. I tried to get a good closeup of the trapunto, applique and quilting. While, it's not in very good condition, it's a great time capsule. It belonged to my mother in law, who was from N.C. and did go to Pennsylvania to buy antiques. The cotton has no seeds and has been carded well before being used. I love the cheddar and red. The foliage color was so pretty during its day, having a blue tint. Well, I just wanted to share these photos! I have never done trapunto, but it looks very time consuming. I'd love to hear what you have to say! Any input would be greatly appreciated.

This is for all of my displaced "Scarlett's" out there...
