Maine Quilt
2 Attachment(s)
My friend found this quilt at the local "dump" store. It's a bit tattered around the edges and top edge. It's been well used.
Just wondering if this is a pattern or someone's creation? The fabric is from the 80's. Any comments are welcome! Thank you Erin [ATTACH=CONFIG]579445[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]579444[/ATTACH] |
hope you can save it... it's a lovely quilt

Is that all applique? and if so is it all turned applique or raw edge? Would love to see some closeups. This looks like a real treasure.
|
Great find. I think it is someones creation.
|
What a lovely quilt - I'm so glad you found it! I can just see it hanging in a Maine bed & breakfast or at an historical society.

It's sad that no one valued it. I would put a new binding on it and repair any spots that need it.

Thank you Erin This looks like a pattern from "Piecemakers" of Costa Mesa, California. Anytime I come across one of their Calendar patterns in a thrift store, I buy it for my "somedays". I have not seen this pattern. I would contact piecemakers.com and send the post you have left here. They may be interested in it. You would expect to see a label or signature on something so exquisitely done. |
Your friend has a good eye. Hope you can find out what you need to know it's lovely. Let us know. BrendaK

Nice find.

That quilt took a lot of work. Can't imagine why someone just give it away.
