Meet Matilde! This piece is beautifully understated though colorful at the same time in its pastel colors on a simple white background. We love the large scale of the double wedding ring design used in this vintage handmade quilt top.

The double wedding ring quilt pattern is a symbol of love and romance that dates back to the late 19th century. The interlocking rings in the pattern represent marriage, and the quilt was often given as a gift by mothers and grandmothers to their children on their wedding day or anniversary. The design was most popular during the Great Depression, but quilts with this pattern are still found as prized pieces in many collections today.

Quilt tops are worthwhile investments because they embody the quilter's artistic vision, creativity, and craftsmanship, showcasing intricate patterns and carefully selected fabrics that set the aesthetic foundation for the finished quilt. Despite being unfinished, we believe a quilt top holds significant value due to the substantial time, precision, and skill required to create it. We think they are stunning on their own, or you could also use them as a framed piece, shower curtain, window covering, or tablecloth in your home. 

The beauty of quilt tops is that they offer flexibility, allowing the variability to either complete the quilting process or collaborate with another quilter to finish it according to your preferences. Quilt tops hold personal or historical significance, capturing memories, stories, or cultural heritage, making them meaningful and treasured pieces.
