It measures 68" X 80" and is in good condition, with the occasional age spot, fade in places, and two areas of the binding with wear (perhaps related to the fade) -- see pics.
There is close straight line quilting throughout at an even 12 stitches to the inch.
The back is white, the hand stitched binding is the same nice red print used in the interior, and the batting is thin. You can see cotton seed residue inside when you hold the quilt up to the light.
The EXCELLENT COLORS, DENSE QUILTING, and GREAT DESIGN make this 19th century beauty stand out!
