This is a stunning example of a Flying Geese (some would call it Wild Goose Chase) quilt from the first half of the 19th century. The small triangles are made of a rich variety of printed fabrics. The solid Bars are an unusual glazed chintz with a Gothic Revival theme. Deer are seen next to the pointed arch buildings.
The quilt is in excellent, unwashed condition. Quilting is done with alternating bands of diagonal lines. Measurements are 93 inches square.
