QUILTS & FABRIC: PAST & PRESENT

Morris Meadow

 

Quilt shops have been ordering Morris Meadow: Best of Morris
from Moda, the latest in our William Morris reproduction collections.

We've added a couple of new/old prints and recolored
some of our favorites.
The collection should be delivered to shops in July.

Becky Brown has pieced a design that makes the most of the darks & lights.
As a Four-Patch it's a design from the Ladies' Art Company catalog 100+ years ago.
Kansas Troubles is one name.

She added a few older Morris prints too.

Cutting for 12" finished blocks.
The quilt is 48" x 60".


The pattern was used decades before there was a Kansas Territory.

Here's one from the age of chintz, 1830s?


Becky's turned out nicely, don't you think?

  2. Very pretty fabrics, especially the blues! I'll be keeping an eye out for them.
    The sewing machine headpiece in your header photo is a hoot!
