- Description
- A floral block-printed fabric was used to make this quilted counterpane. Three panels of cotton, block-printed in brown, red, and pink with penciled blue were sewn with linen thread to create the center. This was framed by a band of trees also block-printed on cotton. "S . B 6" is cross-stiched on the lining. It was quilted in a chevron pattern, 9 stitches per inch, and finished with an ivory silk tape binding.
