Update- antique fraktur tops 1854

The two tops are now living at the International Quilt Study Center & Museum in Lincoln Nebraska. Sharing space with Cinda' s collection.

Progress continues on Elizabeth's Quilt

The quilting of Elizabeth's Quilt

As seen......I have started to quilt my copy of Elisabeth's Quilt. Starting in the center. I hope you will enjoy watching the progress as much as I love the journey. I am using a cooton batting and silk thread.

Trapunto- stuffing complete

It has taken awhile with company over the last year but it is finally all stuffed. Time for the batting and backing. All of the stitches that are here in colored thread will be removed after the the quilting is complete. (twice stitched once removed) Stay tuned for the quilting!! This is my copy of the pattern shown on my site for Elizabeth's Stuffed White-work Quilt.
