My favorite quilt backing ever is this beautiful English pillar print with fruit, flowers and baskets that is about 200 years old. (Starley antique quilt collection).
The front is pretty wonderful too - a small scale double 9 patch with lots of great fabrics.
Such a great combination and clearly made by a real fabric connoisseur. Amazing to see in the cloth and available to come visit you- booking now for lectures, trunkshows, and classes in 2017 and 2018.
At first I couldn't see how it was a DOUBLE nine patch, but in the bottom photo I can get a glimpse of the nine 9-patch blocks on point. I thought the second photo was the whole quilt--silly me.
ReplyDeleteLove it--and that gorgeous backing print!
