Enjoy a beautiful Redwork Embroidered Quilt showing hand embroidered and quilted blocks. It measures approximately 61 x73 inches.  A central block has the letter "K" and is dated 1895. Each block displays a different design: flowers, birds, a horse shoe (for luck), and a long-eared (English) squirrel.  (Embroidery designs were printed in Massachusetts, sometimes copying English designs)  It may have been made for a young girl.  The cotton batting is light and shows shifting between layers.  Made around 1885-1900, the condition is excellent.  The quilt is believed to have come originally from Northfield, VT.  A sleeve for hanging is hand stitched to the back of the quilt.
