| "This collection of quilt patterns were assembled, for the most part, to represent my fascination with those early Americans who may have had a special occasion or a special person in mind when giving their quilt designs a name. Because these names are so charming and the patterns all pieced, a technique uniquely American, my fascination and use of their imagery in my personal work continues. These quilt patterns, along with many many more not shown here, can be duplicated in needlepoint using a very simple stitch. " | |||||||||||||||

| Many designs in this sampler are related to holidays, beginning with January's choice of Good Cheer to celebrate the ringing in of the new year. This is followed by February's Love Knot to celebrate Valentine's Day, March's Double Irish Chain for St. Patricks's Day, May's Mother's Fancy Star to Celebrate Mother's Day, etc"
Each of these design can stand-alone, or be used as a border or background for some other design. If your browser does not support clickable images, click here to go the first pattern of this series. |
