Thousand Pyramids Quilt with Lily of the Field Border
Located in Darnestown, MD
Thousand Pyramids quilt with a wonderful border of Lily of the Field ( a pattern not often seen). The triangles are made of a beautiful assortment of mostly printed fabrics from the last quarter of the 19th century. The unusual border pattern as well as the fact that it is done with solid colors make for a strong frame. Condition is excellent. Measurements are 80 inches square.
