Date Made: 1876-1900

Checkerboard

Creator: Allen, Dona (donor’s grandmother)

Location Made: Indiana (IN) United States

Contruction: Hand Piecing, Half of these 64 squares in each block are darker colored patterned fabrics and half are a plain cream cotton. The first 9-patch variation has five patterned squares and four cream squares while the other variation has four patterned squares and five cream squares. The cornerstone blocks and large checkerboard blocks are laid out in such as way as to produce a diagonal pattern across the quilt. When the 9-patch blocks with the five patterned squares are used there is a diagonal line of patterned squares running through the sashing and the blocks and when the 9-patch block with four patterned squares is used there is a diagonal line of plain cream squares running through the sashing and the blocks. A secondary design such as this demonstrates deliberate and careful planning on the part of the quiltmaker. The sashing does not extend to the outside edges of the quilt top. The top is hand pieced with 12 small and even stitches per inch indicating that the maker of the top was an accomplished seamstress. The seam allowances are 0.25” and the maker did an excellent job of making the corners of the squares meet (which is necessary for producing the clear secondary diagonal design). The seams are pressed to one side instead of open. The top is unfinished and does not have any borders, backing or batting nor any evidence of the planned quilting pattern.
