Vintage Quilt Foundation-Pieced String Diamond Coverlet

This colorful vintage coverlet is composed of foundation-pieced string blocks arranged to create diamonds, squares and pinwheel-like secondary designs. Narrow strips and small fabric pieces were sewn directly onto muslin foundations, allowing the maker to use even the smallest scraps. The remarkable assortment includes florals, plaids, checks, stripes, polka dots, paisleys, novelty prints and geometric designs, making the coverlet a wonderful textile scrapbook. The completed blocks were joined together and finished with an applied binding.

This piece does not have traditional batting or a separate backing. The muslin foundations and block seams remain visible on the unfinished reverse, as shown in the photographs. Although relatively thin, it is remarkably heavy due to the overlapping fabric strips, seam allowances and muslin foundations. Please review all photographs carefully for the best representation of its construction and condition.  

  • Condition: Excellent 
  • Circa: 1970s–1990s, incorporating both contemporary and possibly earlier saved fabrics.
  • Batting: None
  • Standout: Beautiful scrappy!
  • Shipping: (within the continental U.S.) and shipping insurance is included in the price of the item. 

    Please Read Before Purchasing 🤍

    Due to the vintage and handmade nature of the items sold at Janj Threads, all sales are final.

    We do our very best to carefully inspect each piece and note any flaws, fabric wear, fading, dye bleeding, spots, stains, repairs, or damage within the listing description and photos. However, because these quilts and textiles are often decades old, we may occasionally miss something.

    Please take time to carefully review all photos provided for each item before completing your purchase.

    Photos containing a green tag are intended to highlight an imperfection or area of concern. The green tag measures approximately 2” x 2” and is included to help give perspective on the size of the flaw. Cutter/Stacker quilts do not have green tags. Please review the photos carefully.

    Vintage quilts and textiles carry the beauty of age, history, and use, and minor imperfections are often part of their story and charm.

    If you have any questions about an item, please reach out prior to purchase. We are always happy to help.
