Durham Quilted Wedding Gift 1916

This beautiful quilt was made as a wedding gift for a bride in 1916 by her grandmother, making it a particularly personal example of family textile heritage. Created in the traditional Durham quilting style, it features a white and pink quilted front, a complete white fabric backing, and wool wadding.Measuring 81 inches x 92 inches, the quilt is an impressive size and reflects both the skill involved in its construction and the care with which it was made to mark an important family occasion. It was purchased by SHQA in 2025 from the original family via eBay
