Fading to a majority of the quilt with the exception of one block that has maintained most of its color due to the way it was stored or the cotton used. A lot of the appliqué patches have wear due to the dye used at the time. A few spots of discoloration here and there but still in wonderful useable condition though best for display to maintain the overall integrity.

Most importantly: Please do not cut this quilt for a coat or other project my friends. It is too beautiful and in gorgeous condition and a work of art in and of itself. It would be tragic to cut up such a beautiful piece of textile history.
