AMERICAN STAR QUILT
These unique Folk Art collectibles are the product of many years of research into the quilts, quilt making traditions and quilt makers of the 19th and early 20th century. Designs are created with these early pieces in mind and then carefully adapted to 1"= 1' (1:12) scale.
"Like the early quilt makers I preserve each scrap, perusing my collection of antique fabrics until the perfect combination emerges. Scarcity is the central design element, affording the quilts an undeniable character. Flaws in the fabric, signs of wear and mending are apparent. With the use of antique fabrics and early patterns and designs, I hope to create quilts that are truly reflective of the Art of Traditional American Quilt Making."
