Our Crazy Patch wall hanging was made by our head quilter. Her embroidered stitch-work is brilliantly adroit: a garden of embroidery nourished by the fabrics.

This time, the maker downsized to a wall hanging – a beautiful piece of art for any wall.
Crazy quilt patterns can be constructed of fabrics such as velvet, satin and silk and can be embellished with complicated and varied embroider patterns, buttons, lace, ribbons and beads. They can be found in many museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Smithsonian.

During the Revolutionary War, church dolls were made for little girls to carry and bring with them into church services. Dolls were given to young girls to keep them occupied during what could be day-long church services. The dolls were made entirely of cloth so that when they were dropped in church they would not make noise and disturb the service. Church dolls were revived during the Civil War as remembrances for those who went to fight and given as keepsakes to soldiers representing the loved ones they’d left behind.

This blanket is a mix of vintage and contemporary components. Purchased at an estate sale in New Milford, CT in the 1980’s we believe the fabrics are from the 1960’s. We love the muted, soft colors – especially since we no longer see them in today’s quilts. The quilt top was sewn together by hand and we felt it would be a shame to not finish it, making it into the contemporary quilt it deserves to be. We used a high loft batting, a soft pale blue cotton fabric for the back and added hanging loop and then hand quilted it into existence.
The result is a cozy, warm blanket (or throw) – great for napping. There is also a hanging sleeve sewn onto the back of the throw should you prefer to hang it on a wall. We love it!

The Bargello design, also called a “flame stitch,” was originally stitched into canvas and primarily used to make upholstery.

Her quilting within the main part of the quilt emphasizes the pattern this by mirroring the peaks and valleys of this Bargello pattern. (Item 1025)

This quilt pattern changes, depending upon how you look at it. It can be seen as flowers with four or eight petals, or, one is reminded of a large flock of blackbirds taking off or settling in a tree. There is constant movement and it’s a beautiful pattern, accomplished by some gorgeous piecing of nothing but triangles. This quilt is entirely black and a creamy unbleached cotton, and the sharp contrast between dark and light is what creates the fluid negative and positive interchange of spaces.
There is also a weave – almost like a woven basket – that becomes prominent when the quilt is viewed on a diagonal. This quilt pattern is called Arachne’s Quilt after the master weaver who, in Greco-Roman mythology, challenged Athena to a weaving contest. For this hubris, Arachne was changed into a spider: the greatest weaver of all.

Ours is an innovative twist on a traditional Boston Common Amish quilt pattern. The maker took the pattern and literally turned it on its side. So, rather than a rectangular pattern, the Boston Common quilt pattern is in a diamond shape. And, rather that piece a diamond of the same colors in the inner space of this quilt, she hand appliqued and embroidered a heart shaped wreath of flowers – complete with butterflies. And apparently this wasn’t enough! On our Boston Common Amish quilt the maker also embroidered and appliqued a garland of flowers at the head, foot and sides of this quilt to compliment the central wreath. Finally, there’s so much hand quilting in our Boston Common Amish quilt, we don’t know where to tell you to look first!

We believe this beautiful quilt describes the journey of those seeking to escape slavery by traveling to and reaching the northern states and beyond into Canada.
In the middle of the quilt burns a traditional 8-pointed Amish star: a star of faith, conviction and courage. In order to avoid detection and recapture, escapees had to travel at night. They relied upon the stars to point the way north, as represented by the stars that ring the quilt. After the inner Amish star is the pattern Drunkard’s Path which represents the evasive maneuvers taken to avoid detection. Like the rivers and streams followed by escapees, the Drunkards Path is meandering and winding. The border you see is specific to this pattern and not seen in any other quilt. This is a strong, beautiful Amish textile. (Item 2171)

American oral tradition suggests that the Drunkards Path quilt design was used along the Underground Railroad. Some even say that this pattern was used as an icon of the Women’s Temperance Movement. We look at this quilt and just think it’s beautiful!
Drunkards Path quilts are difficult to find, mostly because it’s difficult to cut, piece and hand quilt. It’s a particularly challenging pattern to make due to the curved pieces that make up the pattern. Due to the complexity of the design, construction involves pinning together many moving pieces to form the pattern. In the case of our Drunkards Path the maker chose two contrasting colors to create a lot of drama. Every single curved piece is hand quilted. There are also complimentary fluid twist patterns hand quilted along the borders of this quilt.

This variation on a Broken Star quilt pattern is sometimes called a Fan Star. It’s the first we’ve had in many years. The maker used an array of print and solid fabrics and pieced them from dark to light to dark again. The quilt’s light background both contrasts and compliments the pattern and the fabrics. This Broken Star quilt is a stunner, with feathered wreaths and garlands hand quilted patterns throughout. (Item 1064)

Our Lone Star Amish quilt is well pieced and hand quilted. The central star of this quilt is created by sewing together hundreds of small diamond-shaped pieces of fabric. Have a look at the diamonds the maker used to create the central star and you can easily see that every diamond is hand quilted on each of it’s four sides. That’s a lot of hand quilting! It’s also easy to see that our Lone Star Amish quilt is covered with precise and tiny hand quilted stitches. A central star pattern is difficult to execute. This one is a beauty made up of a gorgeous mix of earth tone and jewel tone fabrics.

Our fans and friends who really know us are well aware that we have this “thing” about quilts as art: We’re easily riled when someone calls a quilt an “arts and crafts” item, or describes a quilt or quilt maker as “crafty.” We are firm believers that quilts truly are art!
Our first Pineapple Log Cabin quilt in ages!
Detail of Pineapple Log Cabin quilt
After a very long spell we recently we received one Pineapple Log Cabin quilt. Then, very shortly thereafter, a second. There aren’t many makers of this pattern. It’s a lot of very small pieces of fabric, making it unwieldy and enormously time consuming to piece. All those little pieces result in a hand-quilting nightmare. It took years to find a maker willing to take on the task and now we get a Pineapple Log Cabin quilt in once every 18 or so months. As you can imagine, we were happy to have two!
Pineapple Log Cabin in its gorgeous forever home!
We sold one of our Pineapples immediately – to one of the nicest and kindest people we’ve met since starting this business. We’re always happy when one of our quilts goes to a good home and this Pineapple went to one of the best. The buyer loves her quilt and put it to good use immediately. She took this picture and sent it to us. We wanted to share this with you because think you’ll agree that this is one really good-looking quilt!
