Featured Vintage Wedding circle quilt

I was wondering if this was a reproduction or older quilt. It does not have any vintage odors but looks to be hand sewn in most places, except for edges. It's also thin.
Any ideas ?

Thank You

Fabrics don't look too old. 1970s on, I'd guess.

1970's ? I seen one similar on ebay and sold for like $200, they said it was antique, could old things not have a smell ? Going to swap meet tomorrow, not sure how much to ask.

 

It's a "double wedding ring" pattern. The stitching says Chinese factory made to me. A woman hand quilting wouldn't sew it like that.

 

It is crude.

Chinese factory really ? Dang it, I was hoping for bug bucks, oh well.

 

Sure looks like it. No one who would piece that precisely would hand stitch that sloppily.

 

Thanks Debora..I wonder why 2 ladies at thrift store seen me grab it and started talking in Spanish. I guess they didn't know that I was 1/2 Mexican and understood everything they said, the older one told the other lady that she wished they would have got it, reminded her of her Mom's quilt, oh well. I guess those Chinese should never be aloud to export things to the US, they are flooding the market with crap.

 

I'll half bet that was machine stitched not all that many years ago, then a not-very-neatly-quickie-top-stitched-job to fool those who don't know any better!!!!! No self respecting quilter would ever top stitch like that!!!!!!! BUT, from a DISTANCE, it DOES look nice, as in your first image, Billy!!!

 

My impression, too, is mass-produced 1970s/80s department store quilt. The stitches are sparse and uneven, and the fabrics appear 70s/80s. Nevertheless, it's a nice usable quilt!
A good collectible quilt would have at least 8-10 even stitches per inch.

 

Okay, Thank You for that info..
