Antique Quilt Dated 1897 Hand stitched Emroidered Embellished Crazy Folk Art - $599 - (Moline, IL)

This 1897 dated quilt is truly amazing. Multiple stitch patterns, embroidered, embellished with various designs. It has been backed and as can be seen in the photos there is some fabric loss. A reunion banner stitched in is from Horicon Wisconsin, Dodge County dated 1848. Please pay close attention to the photos as they are part of the description (need more than a 1000 words to describe this quilt). Zoom in to see details. This isn't just a quilt its a work of art. I will be happy to take additional photos and answer any questions to the best of my ability. The quilt was purchased by my mother from my landlady in Davenport Iowa in 1968. My mother later backed it for hanging. It measures approximately 52 inches by 52 inches
