Vintage (1970s) Baby Hand-Embroidered Crib Quilt.
Likely made from a stamped embroidery kit. Pre-stamped, pre-quilted baby crib quilt kit. Fabric has a sheer, lightweight nylon or polyester tricot // nylon mesh overlay layered over puffy polyester batting, which was pre-quilted in horizontal channels before the embroidery was added. Kits made with this specific puffy, sheer-top pre-quilted synthetic fabric were widely produced in the 1970s and 1980s. Hand Embroidered Execution.
Good Vintage Condition. 2 Holes. Discoloration throughout backing. Found in as-is condition in Pennsylvania. Structurally Sound. Puppy and other motifs are stitched entirely by hand using outline - stem - stitches and small straight stitches in multiple colors : tan, black, pink, red, blue, and pale green cotton floss. Hand embroidery stitches pass cleanly over the factory-made horizontal machine quilting lines.
Measurements : 47.5" x 35"
