The links from this page should take you to the family names I'm researching. There you will find a list of family members with that name in chronological order. Links from there will take you to info I hold on that family mamber. In sddition I hope to create a further section on the Geill family and their involvement in Calico printing.

Early Days. Have an idea of what I want but working on the blog layout & design to try to make the pages look consistent:-)

 

A lovely , thin quilt fragment c1815. The front fabric was printed at Bannister Hall in England. The backing fabric I'm not sure of where, but also similar time period. There is a cotton batting. This textile is a rare glimpse at documented fabrics from the UK in the early 1800's ! ~*~

Measurements : This textile measures about 77 inches by 8 inches

CONDITION: The front panel has some large and medium holes!!! It's very very important that you view the photographs using the zoom feature so you can see all condition details!~ The condition is reflected in the price of this textile ~*~
