This is Corliss Searcey's interpretation of the English Medallion Quilt from the early 1800s. These naive baskets are surrounded by borders of hexagon flowers, stars, hearts, and more. You can have great fun with this "busy" quilt and its easy shapes that do not need precise placement to achieve a fabulous look. The complete pattern includes full-size blocks & borders....
From Australian Designer Irene Blanck.
Measurement: 66″ x 66″
Description: I combined everything I love about quilting in this design – needle-turn applique, reverse applique, and English Paper Piecing. The diamond border is prepared using paper but then appliqued to the background fabric. The quilt is an interpretation of an antique quilt.
