Basic Description

Of thick cotton and filled with only the finest wool padding, this full-sized quilt looks like it will definitely insulate any sleeper against the cold Pernese winters. The stitches, in strong white whergut thread, are meticulously precise, for all that they are hand-sewn. The patches of the quilt are interlocking geometric shapes, creating an intricate pattern which the eye is hard pressed to unravel. Solid and print patches are dotted in a random order around the work, in various shades of white, rose, and green. The border of the quilt, like the stitching, is white. Under one corner is sewn a lavender badge with a white spool and needle reading Journeyrank Crafted.
