| Buzzard's Roost Quilt: Circa 1870; New York SOLD | |
Research tells me the name of this unusual geometric pattern is Buzzard's Roost but it is not a design I have seen before. It is as crisp and fresh as the day it was made in the 1870's. Beautiful selection of printed fabrics. Measures 76" x 88"; New York State origin.

| Four Point Stars Quilt: Circa 1870
$1285. |  |
There does not seem to be an established name for this takeoff of a Four Point Star quilt pattern. It is much more complex than one usually sees. The way the blocks are positioned creates an octagon around each star giving the entire piece a wonderful swirling effect. Beautiful combination of 1870's fabrics. Excellent condition; measures 75" x 90"; circa 1870.
