Vintage 1930s quilt from the Ruby McKim Flower Garden Embroidery patterns. The quilt measures 72 inches by 72 inches.
The 25 embroidered blocks are on a bright orange fabric, each 8 inches square. They are set with 25 alternating bright pink blocks. The border is 8 inches wide and has a quaint white picket fence. Notice the green grass and blue sky behind the fence…a nice detail!
The quilt was hand pieced and is hand quilted at 6 spi and the white binding is hand applied as well. The hand quilting goes around each embroidered motif, and there is a flower motif in the pink blocks. Please note, the pink color is more accurate in the distant shots, the close ups pictures make the fabric look purple.
Condition is good. A few seams need to be re-stitched, and there looks like a water stain in one corner that might soak out once the necessary mending is complete.
