Sylvie | Vintage Pink Shoo Fly Quilt Top
$180.00
description
Meet Sylvie! A beautiful vintage quilt top. The sweetest color palette arranged in a shoo fly quilt pattern that would be just perfect in a little one’s room. The Shoofly quilt pattern originated around 1850 and was named after a wild plant called Clover Broom or “shoo-fly”.
As a hand-quilted top without any batting or backing, there is a lot of versatility in this piece. You could use it folded across the end of a bed, as a shower curtain, a beautiful tablecloth, window curtains, or finish it out as a completed quilt!
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.
