MAVERICK LOG CABIN
Unknown Quilt Maker
Collected in Pennsylvania
64 x 74 inches
Circa 1930
Wools
Based on Tradition ... and Then...
----> Going Her Own Way ---->
A wonderful example of how American quilt makers established traditions,
and then tweaked, adjusted, and played with those traditions ~
often, then, putting a very personal stamp on their quilts.
The basic Log Cabin design is evident here ~ the "bones" ~
brilliantly transformed into an
almost-abstract, definitely unique composition.
All Wools, except for the floral printed 1930s print on the back.
Tied rather than quilted ... and in Excellent Condition.
S/he hand embroidered all the seams in contrasting colors
emphasizing the masterful composition.
Price: $785
