Mid-Century Multi-Fabric Crazy Quilt

[ translate ]

63 x 77 inches. A large handmade utility quilt featuring a "crazy" patchwork design on the top. The construction utilizes a wide variety of textile scraps including cotton flannel, wool blends, synthetic knits, plaid shirting, corduroy, and velvet in an irregular, non-repeating pattern. The seams between the patches are embellished with decorative embroidery, showcasing several distinct styles such as feather stitching and herringbone stitches executed in multiple thread colors including orange, green, black, and white. The quilt layers are secured using a tied construction method, with small tufts of purple yarn visible across the surface. The reverse side is composed of a single piece of blue and white plaid cotton fabric, which also serves as the binding for the edges. The eclectic mix of materials, specifically the inclusion of synthetic knits alongside traditional flannels and plaids, characterizes this as a mid-20th-century folk textile. There are no maker marks, signatures, or labels present on the piece.
