This vintage wool suiting quilt, likely dating to the 1950s or 1960s, is made from repurposed fabrics originally used for tailored garments. A quilting tradition rooted in the late 19th century, wool suiting quilts were valued for their warmth and durability. This example features a patchwork top in navy, plum, and ivory, finished with colorful yarn ties and a floral backing. Its hand-tied construction reflects the practical tradition of making quilts from reclaimed textiles. Suitable for layering over a bed, draping over a chair, or using as a throw. One of a kind.
