Esther
$350.00
What a unique quilt! She is special for sure. We were told that she was made in the 30’s and put away. A second glance reveals an endearing lack of precision in the top. The pieced blocks are not the same size but I think that is good testament to determination and a great reminder that beauty and perfection are not the same thing. She is extra cuddly with double batting. Her basket fabric is so fun. It is a pink-coral and black small floral that is sure to bring a smile.

This is a Reawaken Quilt:
Every quilt that comes to us arrives unfinished — a top that someone pieced years ago and then set aside. Before it leaves us, it goes through all of this:
-
Inspected stitch by stitch, front and back
-
Repaired by hand where seams have given way or fabric has worn thin
-
Gently cleaned using methods safe for fragile vintage cotton
-
New batting and backing, chosen to suit the top's weight and era
-
Custom quilted on our Bernina longarm — a pattern picked for this quilt, not a default
-
Hand-finished binding
The result is not a fragile antique to be kept behind glass. It's a finished quilt that is durable, machine washable, and meant to be used.
