Meet Autumn! This quilt measures 89 x 72 inches and fully covers a queen size bed. The vibrant reds, yellow, orange and brown are so reminiscent of the beautiful colors you see in the fall. If Autumn is your favorite time of the year, this quilt will definitely give you a taste of autumn all year round. I hope you enjoy Autumn.

I handcrafted Autumn following the Gee's Bend quilting tradition that goes back three generations. This hand sewn quilt features an abstract pattern in primary shades of brown, red, yellow, orange and black with a complimentary rust shade cotton backing that enables you to easily see the stitch pattern. This piece, measuring 89 x 72 inches is completely hand made and hand sewn using cotton fabric and was completed around 2012.

Quilt Details:
- 89 x 72 inches

- Handmade by a Third Generation Gee's Bend Quilter in 2012

Your handmade Gee’s Bend quilt requires special care to preserve it for generations to come. As some pieces may be older heirloom items, I recommend testing for colorfastness before washing. To do this, take a damp, white cloth and rub it against your quilt's colored fabrics. If there is any color transfer to the white cloth, washing the quilt may result in discoloration and fading.

If you complete the colorfastness test and there is no color transfer, wash on a gentle cycle using a mild, gentle detergent in cold water; or hand wash by submerging your quilt alone in soapy water, gently rinse, then repeat. No chlorine bleach. Tumble dry, dry on a drying rack, or hang it outside to air dry. Finish with warm iron, if desired.

Some older quilts may have spots or discoloration due to their age. Because of its delicate nature, cautiously spot clean your quilt only as needed, as it can remove color that comprises the original style and tone of the quilt that you may not be able to get back. If there are spots that you would like to remove, use a very small amount of a mild detergent and gently rub the area with a white soft cloth. Use extreme care when doing this. If you don't feel comfortable washing or spot cleaning your quilt, consider locating a qualified conservation or restoration service.

The quilt is beautiful. I bought it as a gift for my mother’s 90th birthday and she loves it! It shipped very quickly. The seller was even kind enough to add a birthday card to wish my mom a happy 90th.

I feel humbled to have this beautiful quilt made by Ms. Delia. It is truly a work of fine art--lovely design, impeccable stitching, and vibrant color. It is a piece of history as well as art. It is also so lovely that I plan to hang it at church for awhile. More people than just me need to see and appreciate it!
