Love Birds and Hearts on antique basket quilt. Part of my Birds and Blooms Trunk show.
The full quilt, circa 1850, from New York State.
And here it is with my friend Mickey Beebee's makeover of it which was shown in Houston.

You should have 5 sawtooth stars.
And 20 twenty 16 patches (and a few extra leftover 4 patches if you were
speedy)
All of these should measure 4 1/2"...

What a lovely basket quilt. The birds in the border are wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteA great vintage basket quilt. But the remake knocked my socks off. I can almost sense a heartbeat from it!
