Infinite Variety Three Centuries of Red and White Quilts
This quilt is unlike any I have ever seen. At the bottom is embroidered "Palo Alto. Postcard".
I have no idea what the shapes represent but they are appliqued over and over on the quilt top.
Must have come from California though right? Happy Sewing, Kim

I was thinking it had to be the print on the fabrics, but applique?!!!! WOW! I just can't imagine doing that much applique. What dedication. Thanks for sharing. (It could have been made in Mexico - those ladies are amazing needlewomen.)
ReplyDeleteI thought there was different names appliqued on those border horses.
ReplyDeleteI thought they were folk art horses that pulled sleds...
we stood there for awhile trying to come up with what these were...unicorns? I thought the folk art horse and carriage was tied to the weathervane post!
it was a great quilt!
