HAND SEWN 48-STATE QUILT

Every once in a while you come across an unusual item produced by a local craftsperson. This is one. The quilt was handmade by a Warren County lady, now deceased, back before Hawaii and Alaska became the 49th and 50th states. It features 48 depictions of the bird and flower chosen by each state as their "their" bird and flower. It's in near immaculate condition, having been stored in a sealed bag for all these years. It's one-of-a-kind, and a very desirable piece that will be sold on eBay by the present owner.
