Double Wedding Ring Quilt
Bridal quilts have been made in various patterns over the years that reflect the customs and styles of the time. The double wedding ring style became popular in the late 19th century and has remained popular since.
The double wedding ring quilt at the Thompson House is a beautiful and well-preserved example of the style. It features a serpentine edge band and is fancy-quilted in a chain stitch with concentric ring and petal décor. Like most quilts in the wedding ring pattern it is composed of pastels on a white background.
