Linen Quilt "Satellites"
Linen Quilt "Satellites"
100% linen quilt with wool batting. Hand-dyed indigo resist pattern front, natural linen back. Roughly queen size (7.5 feet wide by 8 feet long). Made by Peter.
This quilt is machine stitched and quilted, made of 100% linen fabric, including indigo physical resist hand-dying techniques. The batting (fill) is 100% wool. The combination of linen and wool makes a quilt that is warm in the winter and yet breathes well, making this a 3 or even 4 season quilt. If used as bedding, this quilt can be machine washed on gentle using a mild, non-alkaline soap, and machine dried on low or medium to damp dry. The wool and linen will last longer if not fully dried in the dryer, but rather letting it air dry on a line or simply thrown over a couch or chair.
This quilt, with its bold patterns from afar and small variations in the stitching and dying visible up close, can also be displayed on a wall as an object of art. A hanging sleeve will be sewn on the back at no extra charge at the request of the client.
