What a treasure of a quilt! I sometimes wonder what the makers of such quilts would think of us as we rush from project to project with our time-saving gadgets and techniques? Would they be amazed or would they be sad? Just wondering.
Beautiful quilts. Luky you to see them up close. I saw the antique blue quilts featured at Long Beach last year. Still would like to one someday! Thanks for sharing.

OMG i love love that quilt. I'm not a blue person, but I can see it in double pinks or reds. Lovely!! you made my morning. been feeling a little uninspired in bloggyland lately and this was a treat!
As an indigo lover, your quilt is fabulous. Also, after making the little basket quilt in When the Cold Wind Blows, I know how much work those tiny baskets must be. That is a beauty of an indigo quilt.
The batting may be thick, but it doesn't detract much...
An indigo whole-cloth...
Detail - Still has that beautiful sheen...
I love indigo...thanks so much for sharing these photos!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts. It still amazes me that people created such treasures without the convenience of all the tools we have today.
