Vintage Quilt Ohio Star

This colorful vintage Ohio Star quilt measures approximately 72" x 78" and features hand-pieced star blocks set on point against a lovely lavender-purple background. A narrow white border and golden-yellow outer border frame the design beautifully. The wonderfully varied assortment of florals, checks, stripes, indigo prints, shirtings, and feedsack-era cottons gives it the unmistakable charm of a genuine scrap quilt. Some fabrics may have been saved from earlier decades and incorporated from the maker’s household fabric collection.

The Ohio Star is a traditional nine-patch star design found in quilts dating to the 19th century, although the name “Ohio Star” was assigned later and does not necessarily indicate where a quilt was made. This example is entirely hand pieced and hand quilted with diagonal lines that create a simple grid across the quilt. It has a hand-stitched applied binding with slight fraying. The quilt remains in good vintage condition with no notable spots; however, there is some seam separation as shown in the photographs. 

  • Condition: Good vintage condition. Slight fraying on binding
  • Circa: 1930s–1940s. The assortment of small-scale florals, checks, shirtings, geometrics, and feedsack-era cottons supports this date, although some fabrics may have been saved from earlier decades and reused from the maker’s scrap collection.
  • Size: 72" x 78"
  • Batting: Lightweight 
  • Standout: Nice colors
  • Shipping: (within the continental U.S.) shipping/insurance is included in the price of the item.
