Circa 1930-1950
Size: 84”x78”
Medium Weight
Pattern: Flying geese or wild goose chase variation
Condition: Very Good. Some color bleeding from the red fabric. Light wear, stitches coming loose in some areas. Overall great condition, very usable
Handwashed and line dried
Hand pieced and hand quilted, this striking vintage quilt showcases a lively variation of the classic Flying Geese pattern in bold turkey red, crisp white, and soft butter-yellow cottons. Repeating blocks of directional geese and geometric accents create a rhythmic, architectural design with wonderful visual movement across the quilt. Simple hand quilting enhances the clean lines while adding soft texture, making this an elegant example of early 20th-century American quiltmaking.
Mid-20th century, circa 1930s–1950s
This quilt is best identified as a Flying Geese (Wild Goose Chase) variation, built from repeated Flying Geese units arranged into larger geometric blocks rather than traditional rows. Popular throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Flying Geese quilts symbolized travel, migration, and direction. The maker's use of bold red against a bright white ground, softened by pale butter-yellow accents, gives the pattern a distinctly Depression-era character while emphasizing the strong geometry of the design.
Good vintage condition with light age-related wear, scattered small marks, and minor surface discoloration consistent with age and use. The quilt remains structurally sound with vibrant colors, crisp piecing, and beautiful hand quilting throughout, making it an excellent display or collection piece.

*Disclaimer: Please remember that you’re purchasing a quilt that is decades—sometimes well over a century—old. Signs of age are part of their story. I do my best to photograph and describe any condition issues honestly.
You may find:
• Fading or discoloration
• Small stains or age spots
• Light wear, thinning, or fabric repairs
• Minor imperfections consistent with age and use
Each of these are little piece of American history—stitched by hand from cotton, feed sacks, flour sacks, clothing, and treasured scraps by women who made beauty from what they had. Every quilt carries a story, and it’s been an honor to help preserve these heirlooms for the next generation.
