ANTIQUE QUILT DISPLAY

It's always such an unexpected pleasure to find quilts (as art) on display in a place of business. Due to a small set back in 'the husband's" recovery from eye surgery....we had another vision to his retina specialist in Asheville.

While waiting, I had plenty of time to snap photos of some of the stunning antique quilts they have carefully and thoughtfully displayed. Unfortunately, there were no visible signatures on any of the pieces, nor any signage provided. Each, hand pieced/appliqued, hand quilted quilt is in remarkable condition for its age, which I'm guessing is late 1800's.

Enjoy........
