Rarely do we see such a superb example of an antique quilt.  The immensely complex 'Mariners Compass' pattern has been beautifully executed here and the choice and combination of fabrics is perfect.  The colours remain vibrant which is rare.  The back of this patchwork quilt is an off white colour with the pattern of the design from the front showing through perfectly. Charlotte has done some conservation work here and there using fabrics from the 1830's.
