Definitely a labor of love for me to reproduce this quilt, calms the mind and calms the soul to work on a quilt with so much history.
I have to purposely make my stitches crude and irregular to reflect the primitive look.

A closer look from the antique quilt of those blocks.
My heart aches at the death of Robin Williams...
Lovely blocks. Looking forward to watching your progress.
ReplyDeleteIt is very sad about Robin Williams, for his family.
dear nancy, your blocks are so nice, i am wondering if she ,emily, quilted them,i read somewhere that it is a potholderquilt,and i do not quite know what that means,have a nice weekend,susi
ReplyDeleteI just love this pattern. I wonder how cotton applique would look as I dont have the money to buy wool. I am also saddened by Robin Williams. My grandfather and uncle look much like him.
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt blocks, it looks like a big quilt! Jan Patek was at our guild meeting this week, she's funny, it made me think of you! Blessed be,
ReplyDeleteTour version of this quilt is absolutely stunning, Nancy. Love your color and stitch choices. Enjoy the process and the little moments.
ReplyDeleteLovely, just absolutely lovely. I too am so sad about that funny man.Just cannot understand it.

Lovely block again and I feel the same about Robin Williams. Amid so many silly celebrities (fame, money, bling bling, selfies and only that) he stood out as a good person, a nice guy and a lover of animals. Seeing the video of him and Koko brought tears to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteBonjour,
ReplyDeleteJ'ai fait aussi une courtepointe en appliquée , comme autre fois, j'ai eu beaucoup de bon temps à la faire,
La vôtre est fantastique !!!
You are moving right along with this lovely quilt.
ReplyDeleteAh, so sad about Robin Williams.
How lovely! Such a big undertaking but it will be absolutely worth it, that is obvious already.
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful!

ReplyDeletewhat a waste, when a light is turned out as quickly as Robin's was.
