Thanks for stopping by - Dawn
Such wonderful quilts, thanks for showing!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, all of them are breathtaking. The broken branch is my favourite.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these Dawn
Love the appliqued name and date. I'm a big fan of the broken branch variation- interesting it was made in WY!
ReplyDeleteAnne Olsen bought the antique quilt top and did the hand quilting in 2003. The completed quilt was then donated to the museum. She's a wonderful supporter of RMQM.
DeleteThe workmanship is so elegant and precise. I wonder if these women who made these quilts realized their artistic talents and abilities.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the share, Dawn! These red/green quilts are so lovely...Broken Branch is my favorite--if I had to choose. Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing these sensational quilts. I especially love the reverse applique feathered border.
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting the pictures. I missed the RMQM red and green exhibit by one day a couple of years ago. I am so glad to see your pictures, at least.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the great photos!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness - too much beauty! I need a coffee to sit and enjoy this for a while - thanks so much :)
ReplyDeleteI'm just blown away again by these jaw dropping quilts! That reverse applique is gorgeous - imagine having the patience for that! I love the quilting in the broken branch quilt - the border treatment I will have to study further. You take such wonderful close pictures to enjoy the fabrics and the stitching - thanks so very much!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Quilts.
ReplyDeleteThe Broken Branch design has very pretty quilting. I never take time to do that sort of quilting.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these! In Australia antique quilts are rarely on show so I really appreciate it when bloggers share their visits to the wonderful Museums across the pond! There are some real beauties!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the fabrics in the Oak Leaf and Reel. I would like about 4 yards of each, please!! Lol. Gorgeous collection of red & green quilts. Thanks for your pictures of these beauties. I saw that you are teaching in Virginia ( I follow Aunt Reen). You had some truly nice comments on her blog!! Wish I was headed that way!! Good Luck on your teaching travels.
ReplyDeleteI am bringing Catherine, Noah and Matilda ... and others, antique and reproduction quilts doing a lecture. I am delighted and honored to be going. Will post about it next week. June is just around the corner.
DeleteI can't imagine doing that reverse applique on the feathered border. Wow!
ReplyDeleteI don't recall ever seeing the broken branch variation before. Incredible quilting on it!
Love that pineapple variation!
Thanks for taking us to the show, Dawn. : )
I love them all - this post just makes me want to go sit in the chair and hand quilt!
