Condition
 
Very distressed. One half of the fabric is basically just strips with big long splits, holes and thin areas. The other half of the fabric is in better condition but also shows smaller splits many small holes and thin areas. Quilted at one time so you will see traces of quilt lines. Colors fairly even but do show signs of age and use. 
 
In addition you will see and old repair and a patch. No stains. 
 
The fabric has been given a cold water soak to remove dust and dirst and then a light light laundering using those famous Marseille soaps without bleaching agents. 
 
It is our aim to preserve and protect the orginal colors of the fabric since many of our fabrics are being currently reproduced.
