Antique 9 patch quilt measuring 64 by 82 inches. Possibly from Maryland. This looks like it was once a comforter, I found little yarn remnants. It is machine and hand pieced. Each small square measures 1.75 inches. Fabrics include indigos, plaids, solids, chocolate browns, 30s florals, a novelty print, mourning prints, the fabrics date from the 1890s to the 1930s…a few blocks look like they might be replacements. The border is 2.5 inches wide and a cheesy cloth type cotton indigo. In very good condition.
