1935 Handmade Signed Ina Kimble Dresden Plate Quilt - Reel Center 64" x 78" Vintage Cotton

A stunning example of Depression-era quilting artistry, this 1935 handmade quilt bears the signature of its maker, Ina Kimble. The classic Dresden Plate pattern with a distinctive Reel Center showcases the intricate piecing and careful stitching that defined American folk art quilting of the 1930s.

Why This Quilt is Special:
The Dresden Plate is one of the most beloved traditional quilt patterns, and this example features the rare Reel Center variation that adds visual interest to each block. Created during the Great Depression when fabric was precious, each colorful petal was likely cut from salvaged materials—scraps of dresses, shirts, and household textiles—making this quilt a tangible connection to the resourcefulness and creativity of that era.

A Piece of American History:
Imagine Ina Kimble's hands carefully cutting, arranging, and stitching each Dresden Plate block nearly 90 years ago. The multicolor palette brings warmth and character to any bedroom, while the all-seasons weight makes it practical for year-round use or display.

Perfect For:
Vintage textile collectors, quilt enthusiasts, lovers of 1930s Americana, or anyone seeking an authentic heirloom piece with documented provenance and maker's signature.
