A worn and gently faded Wedding Rings quilt - lots of shattered tiny
patches and stains. Use as it is 'shabby country style' on the bed or
if you enjoy sewing the patches could be replaced with some favourite
fabric remnants of your own. Worn quilts such as these are also ideal
for more casual use such as over a wicker sofa in a conservatory,
garden swing in the summer etc. where you wouldn't want to use a
vintage quilt in good condition.Age - Circa 1920's - 1930's. Where from - Oregon. Machine Sewn - Yes. Hand Quilted - Yes. Hand and machine hemmed. Materials Used - Ditsy prints and plain cottons.

around the quilt and there are at least 60 tiny frayed patches, ranging
