Some Antique Eye Candy
">Link
I found this Link on one of the sites I visit..........Circa 1844 A Victorian period Crazy Quilt!
"This spectacular Victorian CRAZY QUILT is organized around 15 original "FRAMED" hand paintings, presumably ALL painted by the quilt maker, Anna E Cross, in 1884. She signed and dated the painting in the lower left corner. Another of the paintings, the one with a figure of a man walking away from the viewer, is also dated 1884."
In my opinion,apart from the framed paintings,it's well worth a close look to examine the seam treatments.
