CIVIL WAR ERA QUILT FROM VIRGINIA PLANTATION

In 1962 while traveling back to Pennsylvania from a family vacation to the outer banks, my parents stopped at an estate sale at a large plantation house. I was a child and as far as I remember, we were on the backroads of Virginia south of the James River near a town called Surrey. We returned many years later to try to find the house but, it had burned. At the time, my mother purchased two quilts from a 94 year old lady. This one was stored in a trunk and the lady explained to my mother that it was made for an uncle who went to war by the women in the family, but sadly, he died in before he could recieve it. This is from my own personal quilt collection over many years and it is time to downsize and I must wth heavy heart, let it go. I am not an expert, just absolutely love quilts and the stories associated with their origin. I have attempted to date the materials and, as far as I can tell, the womans story would be an accurate account. You can see cotton seeds inside if held to the light, it is beautifully hand stitched. The quilt is in good to excellent condition for it's age. I see no rips, no tears, no holes. There is a even telegraphing of material dye on two of the squares to the back (none on the front) of the quilt ( you can see this in one of the pictures of the back). Size = 76" x 64". This is truely a beautiful piece of history.

Questions are welcome. Don't hesitate to make an offer, all respectable offers will be considered. If I have overlooked something, it is not with intention. I want the buyer to be happy.
