The irregular patchwork pieces are joined with colorful decorative embroidery stitches, giving every section a different look.  Finished with a lavender/purple fabric backing and matching binding. This would be beautiful displayed on a bed, draped over a quilt rack, or used as textile wall art.  Condition: Antique condition with age-related wear throughout. Several of the delicate silk/satin patches have splits, holes, fraying and deterioration, as shown in the close-up photos.
