Marg hat diesen Quilt letztes Jahr schnell gemacht und sie ihrer Enkelin geschenkt, die in Melbourne lebt. Ihre Enkelin ging Rollschuhlaufen und hatte später leider einen Sturz und viele Schäden an ihrem Bein ……………………… So wurde Babs gemacht und Tilly geschenkt Es ist eine großartige Gelegenheit, einfach einen lustigen Quilt zu machen, der alle Arten von Drucken und Geometrien zusammenfügt und auch einige bildliche Teile enthält, so viel Spaß! Da viele von uns im Lockdown sind, Nähräume aufräumen usw

Made by Lucinda Ward Honstain of Brooklyn, New York in 1867, it mixes scenes from her own life with scenes of war, runaway slaves, and other political events. Large image here. Above, home scenes. Note the soldier in Zouave uniform at center right. Yes, they really wore those things, at least in the first two years of the war. That may be Lucinda's brother in the dry goods wagon along the left side. This is the bottom right quadrant of the quilt, so the celebratory image in the lower right corner might be considered the last. This was auctioned in 1991 for $265,000, at the time the highest price ever paid for a quilt. It is quite a remarkable thing.

Oh my god

Ann Robinson's quilt dated 1813-1814 Collection of the Shelburne Museum The caption in this catalog of the Shelburne's collection reads: "Appliqed and Pieced Counterpane, Floral Medallion Pattern 1814. Made by Ann Robinson. New England, possibly Connecticut. Cotton; marked 'Ann Robinson October 1, 1813' and 'Finished January 27, 1814.' 100" x 95". Museum acquisition 1954-439 (10-140) I've been thinking about Ann Robinson's quilt for years. I began a copy and have finished my 4 cornucopia. Being quite familiar with those cornucopia with their tulips and blade-shaped leaves I was surprised to come across this photo in Averil Colby's English book Patchwork. Colby's caption reads: " 'The Isle of Wight' coverlet with applique and patchwork patterns in chintz and cotton dress prints, ca. 1820". She said in 1958 that it was lost and this black and white photo the only record. Same cornucopia, a lot less stuff. I should have copied this one. I'd probably be finished. The "American" quilt on the left, the Isle of Wight spread on the right Could it be that Ann Robinson's quilt is English? And my whole theory about an early American applique style is on a slow boat to the Isle of Wight. In this 1958 book Colby also included a quilt made by the Sharman sisters about the same time as the Isle of Wight coverlet. This quilt by "the two Miss Sharman's ca 1820" includes horns of plenty in the corners. I am thinking a lot more work needs to be done on the Ann Robinson quilt: more geneaology, more looking at English pictorial quilts. I'm becoming more doubtful of a Connecticut origin. It has more in common with English applique such as this one that Colby also pictured "applique coverlet with a great variety of cotton prints." She dated it to about 1850. It's now in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum. The applique style with pictures not confined by blocks seems very British. So when we see something like this one dated 1845 we can guess it's British, even though it was found in the United States. The human figures, the horses and other animals and particuarly the freedom of the unconfined applique seems to define a style found in the English quilts below. An English quilt dated 1852 signed Lucy Hasell (?) Horses and hearts are a recurring theme. From an English auction in 2004---probably 1840s Averil Colby drew up some of the appliqued images, but her book seems to have inspired few to copy these pictorial quilts in the 1950s. Here's a British quilt with an orderly center and a border of scattered flowers, hearts and leaf shapes, again probably 1830s or '40s. Similar to this one I think this style resonates better with us today than with Colby's original readers. This pair of panels was probably separated a long time ago. The one above is on the Cora Ginsburg site. http://coraginsburg.com/chintz_applique_border.htm A shorter, more faded piece that sold at an online auction. They may have been borders once and even though they are in the U.S. are probably English. American Quilt Unknown Maker About 1850 It's not that we don't see hearts, horses and people in American quilts. They just stay inside their blocks where they belong. This brings us back to Ann Dagge's quilt, dated the 1 of May, 1818. We shall consider its origins next week.

Appliqueren is zo leuk! Al die kleurtjes bij elkaar; het blijft me altijd verrassen. Je kunt wel een idee hebben van tevoren, maar pas als je het totaal ziet, weet je of je idee klopte. Altijd spannend...... Applique is so much fun! All those colors together; it keeps surprising me. You can have an idea in advance, but until you see the outcome, you never know if you were right. So exciting...... Dit is maand 5 van the Rowdy Flat Library Quilt, BOM van Susan Smith. (klik). Lieve blaadjes, kleine insectjes, schattige bloemen.... Ik blijf het leuk vinden! This is month 5 of the Rowdy Flat Library Quilt BOM by Susan Smith (click). Sweet leaves, small insects, cute flowers..... I love it! Even een paar close-upjes.. A few close-ups.. En ik kon het hartje niet laten.... I just had to put in a little heart.... En het deed me ook denken aan mijn andere (grote..) applicatie-project: Love Entwined van Esther Aliu (klik) Ik ben nu bezig met de laatste rand En GROOT dat ze wordt! It reminded me of my other (big...) applique-project: Love Entwined by Esther Aliu (click). I'm working on the last border. She is BIG! . Zo ziet ze er uit zonder de laatste randen.... Wat een leerproces is dit geweest.... en wat ben ik er blij mee! This is how she looks without the last borders... It's been a learning process... and I'm so happy with that! Allemaal een fijn weekend!! Have a great weekend all!! Love, Ria. P.s. De slag van het bloggen moet ik weer even te pakken krijgen, zie ik wel.... Het is ook een intensief jaar geweest, met veel ziekteproblemen. Gelukkig gaat het nu de goede kant op! P.s. I have to get the hang of blogging again, I noticed..... It's been a very intense year, with lots of healthissues. I'm glad to report I'm doing much better now!

Excitement is growing here at Quilts In The Barn!! Its only 3 weeks till we open the barn doors on what is shaping up to be an amazing exhibition. Featuring the quilts of Marg Sampson-George ( an amazing teacher from the Blue Mountains in Sydney) and her students, there has been many sneak peaks flashing around Instagram and other social media, as many continue to progress towards finished quilts to display. The lovely Jean, and Liz, along with Marg are the main organisers behind this exhibition. These 3 ladies have stitched their little fingers off over the Christmas break to make a stunning raffle quilt, which was hand quilted by Trish Harper, that one very lucky person will win. Raffle tickets are selling fast, and they can be found in many quilt shops, both here in Victoria and other states. The list can be found on the back of the flyer. ( photo from Broderie Blog) If you haven't seen the flyer, here is the front, Proudly supporting Beyond Blue. And here is the back of the flyer with a little more info. Here are a couple of sneak peak of just a few of the quilts we will have on exhibit. Just to wet your appetite! This one is Marg's. This one belongs to Denise. These cute rabbits, which is one of Marg's signature shapes, belongs to Gaye.  This one belongs to Kerry. This one belongs to Liz ( who is one of the organisers)  This belongs to Moira.

It was just fun yesterday quilting this twin sized quilt for a girl. It will be delivered to Memorial Drive United Methodist Church Sunday. We work in partnership with Memorial Assistance Ministries to help families navigate life. I am happy to contribute this quilt for the Blanket Buddies drive. *** Today is the 13th day of Advent: Psalm 67 reminds us that our world in bigger than our house, our family or our neighborhood. God asks us to reach beyond the known and to love & serve among all nations. We are asked to care for all human beings. Prayer: Widen our vision to the whole world you love, O God. Amen.

I did not include the disturbing "swastika" block -- a pre-Nazi celebration of the "indian good luck motif" -- how many swastika quilts do you think got destroyed after WWII?

Marg heeft een aantal van haar eerder gemaakte quilts in medaillonstijl op een frisse manier benaderd en Priscilla is een frisse en heldere versie gemaakt met mooie heldere kleuren en hergebruik van sjablonen van enkele van haar eerder gepubliceerde patronen. Het is zo goed om de eerder gekochte sjablonensets te kunnen hergebruiken en hier staren Mirabella en Free Wheeling terug in Priscilla. ***LET OP: het pakket met sjablonen en papier dat hier bij het patroon wordt verkocht, is voor de grote ster in het centrale blok

We've had more house problems. In the most recent heavy rain the roof started leaking so getting that addressed has been my priority. We now have a new roof (I would rather have had new fabric) and the next step is to have someone go up into the attic to check the state of the wood, the insulation and the ventilation. There is some damage to the ceiling in one room so it will have to be repaired so I think that when that happens the entire room will get a fresh coat of paint. I see more dollars being spent in the near future and they won't be spent on sewing stuff. I finished Block 1 of the Rowdy Flat Library Quilt designed by Susan Smith. The block measures 22" finished. Some of the pieces, like the butterfly bodies are quite tiny but I simply focused on the one I was working on rather than think about the entire quilt. It is a little mind game that I play with myself but it makes the project less daunting! This is the fabric I used for the body. I drew the body with a fabric safe marking tool. I cut out the body leaving a 1/8" seam allowance and on the sides and bottom I left a generous seam allowance. I carefully needle-turn appliqued the top edge of the butterfly's body and then trimmed down the rest of the fabric and finished the needle-turn applique. It made it possible to use a pin to hold the body in place while I appliqued the top edge. Work is now underway on Block 2. The toile skeleton fabric is tinted with my markers and embroidered details added. This is one of the blocks that I first saw that REALLY appealed to me because it had oodles of bees, one large and 18 small! Here is the large bee. And here is the block with the toile and the big bee. Next step is the wreath with lots of green leafs. There are flowers in the corners and the last step with be the 18 little bees! I will use the same gold and brown striped fabric for all of the bee bodies. I have been working on the pattern for The Empire Quilt. It is taking much longer than expected but I'm hoping to get it to you soon. Until I post again, happy sewing! Karen H

Figurative crib quilt from a 1929 McCall's needlework catalog McCall’s Designs for Needlework and Decorative Arts. No real name: "Design for Child's Picture Patch Quilt" One could buy the pattern transfers for 50 cents. Karey Bresenhan Collection And many people did. The pattern doesn't tell us but it looks like a circus quilt with a circus train engine, a giraffe, an elephant and a tiger. The human figures may be Chinese acrobats and perhaps in the lower left here clowns with pointy hats. Pierrot figure with a cone-shaped hat. A little insidious racial stereotyping Chinese acrobats in a 1906 poster Lynn Evans Miller Collection A fancy border and edge From Karen Alexander's collection The McCall's pattern gave you six blocks. See the diagrams at Q is for Quilter http://qisforquilter.com/2016/09/mccalls-monday-childs-picture-patch-quilt-1633/ And you could make up your own if you wanted a bigger quilt. The McCall's pattern gave no designer's name but it may have been the work of Ruth Oppenheimer and Wilhelmine Haas who a year or so earlier published a similar pattern in Needlecraft Magazine (March, 1928): "For the Very Young Comes Patchwork in a New Form" Oppenheimer & Haas seem to have specialized in these gridded puzzle patchworks of animals and people. Figures dressed in the aprons and large hats traditionally worn in Normandy, France. There was a mid-20th century fashion for classifying the people of the world by racial features and traditional costume. The artists seem to have been fond of their Chinese stereotype. A figure in Chinese costume, a kite and a Chow dog. BlockBase #940.42 at the top right Why Chinese? Marin Hanson, Curator at the International Quilt Study Center and Museum, gives the question some thought in this article: "Exotic Quilt Patterns and Pattern Names in the 1920s and 1930s". See a PDF here: https://www.academia.edu/784257/Exotic_Quilt_Patterns_and_Pattern_Names_in_the_1920s_and_1930s Similar idea: Circus animals on train cars with the square wheels. I haven't been able to find a thing out about who Ruth Oppenheimer and Wilhelmine Haas were, perhaps free-lance writers on needlework.
