One Thousand Pyramids in Old Browns 1880s. eBay purchase 2014. 72"x84" Fabric: Cotton "madder browns".
Batting: Thin. Backing: Muslin. Edge: Yellow tape ¼" to each side, machined to the front and caught by
hand on the back. Piecing: By machine. Quilting: By machine in a line across the hypotenuses of the tri-
angles. Condition: Acceptable. The fabrics are firm and strong except for 4 that have split. The back has
areas of age discoloration. Comment: I probably would not have purchased this if I’d known before that the
quilting was by machine, but aesthetically, it works just fine on this quilt.
