Another antique quilt treasure from the Schwenkfelder Museum

There were all sort of wonderful treasures in the Schwenkfelder Museum in Pennsburg, Pennsylvania. Visited there as part of continuing education for appraisers via PAAQT (Professional Association of Appraisers Quilted Textiles). See more about both in yesterday's post.

The hand quilting on this 4 block applique quilt is absolutely stunning.

    Wow! I didn't even realize the background was this wonderful Lancaster blue until I saw the close up. My favorite color scheme. I think I was secretly born in Lancaster County 150 years ago! Thanks for sharing this treasure.

    Hmmm, Wendy is older than we all thought! LOL
    I hadn't noticed the blue until I read her comment, I was so focused on the amazing quilting!
