Short Sleeve Quilt Tee- Dresden Plate
Couldn't load pickup availability
This short sleeve quilt tee was made using an antique wool and cotton quilt from the early to mid 1900s. It features a bright dresden plate block over beautiful orange fabric. It is in good condition for its age, with signs of washing causing the unique crinkled effect and bearding. Bearding is the act of the batting fibers migrating through the the quilt top and backing, leaving a fuzzy or "beard-like" appearance and texture. However, this quilt is all hand pieced with great attention to detail and extended efforts to reduce the bearding appearance.
The pattern created for this short sleeve tee has been designed to fit a variety of bodies, intentionally boxy for a comfortable fit. It features a new bound edge for longevity and clean look.
This quilt is medium weight, perfect for a transition in most seasons & months.
This quilt uses a dresden pattern which has held up extremely well over time. Always remember that this coat is made from an antique quilt that has seen decades of love.

first, remember this is a piece of history - likely around 100 years old. you will see signs of wear, and likely see small tears and stains, which is totally normal! take proper care and be gentle - mending as needed.
washing - deep clean about once a year by soaking in cool water with a gentle or plant based soap - preferably unscented. gently agitate and let it sit for a while - then lay flat in the sun to dry and disinfect! feel free to email us with any maintenance questions hello@reclaimcreative.space
