The background fabric is cut into strips and then reassembled with a double sided tuck sandwiched between each strip. Several lines of curved stitching push the tucks against their natural position, creating motion across the piece. The finished piece was a gift to our granddaughter, Chelsea Blue who wrote: I got the package! It is beautiful. Thank you so much! I am so blessed to have such great grandparents and I truly appreciate all the gifts you send me. This one looks truly made with love and is hanging in my room.

I was learning to sew at the same time as making this quilt. The style was called "Yellow Brick Road." The quilt is machine stitched but the decorative embroidery was completed by hand in a flower pattern. My grandmother was a quilter and I decided to learn after she stated that she was sad that no one was following in her footsteps. She taught me the hand embroidery technique. I made the quilt using my mother's favorite colors and gifted it to her. The back of the quilt clearly shows the improvement of my hand embroidery over time. I was planning on ripping out the less clean embroidery to fix it once I mastered grandma's technique, but my mom wouldn't allow it. She said that she loves to see my process and improvement over the time I made it. The quilt was started in 2008 but finished in 2010. My quilt currently resides in Cincinnati, Ohio with my mother.

She had watched me give baby quilts to the rest of our friend group and I told her that she would receive a quilt whether she had a child or not. She didn't give me a theme other than her favorite colors. I chose a hunter star theme since starts are often used for wishing. I used batik fabric in the background that looked like a nebula, which is the birthplace of stars. This quilt took me longer to make because I only worked on it when I was in a good mood so only positive energy went into it. After completion, I took the quilt several places to be blessed. I finished it over the Christmas season, completing the final stitching in a local coffee shop. Several strangers approached me throughout my time asking about the quilt and they also put good wishes and blessings into the quilt for my friend. Finally the quilt was given to each of her best friends to put their blessings in it before it was gifted to her.

She had not seen this setting before, so it may be original to my grandmother, who was an experienced quiltmaker.","Maker Associator":"51-150-24","QuiltTopF054":"Rose, Helen Irene (Porterfield)","QuiltedByF055":"Hunnicutt, Bette","RelnQuiltF007":["Grandparent"],"IfOtherF007d":"Aunt","EthnicF101":"White (European)","Owner Associator":"51-150-25","OwnerNameF082a":"Rose, Scarlett","IdentPersonF006":["Quilt owner"],"AcquiredF058":"Inheritance","ProvenanceF058a":"My cousin Edward passed away in November 2020.

The seller indicated the quilt was from the northeast United States. The binding on the outside is pieced in segments similar to the sashing. There is a variety of fabric used in the sashing and stars while all the corner stones in the sashing are red. The backing is a brown & white stripe.
\r\n
\r\nThe most notable fabric in this quilt has a small portrait of a man wearing a military uniform with large epaulettes. The portrait is surrounded by a circle of leaves with an eagle above. This portrait may be based on a toile print of Andrew Jackson (identified by name in the toile) wearing a military uniform with large epaulettes. This toile is thought to be celebrating Jackson's presidential inauguration in 1829. The toile portrait is based on an 1817 portrait of Jackson by Ralph Eleaser Whiteside Earl. I believe the fabric in my quilt contains a portrait of Andrew Jackson (wearing his large epaulettes) and may have been printed as a Jackson campaign fabric, i.e., in 1828. The Winterthur museum has some scraps of this fabric (Accession no. 1964.164.B; 1969.044 A)). which they have identified as being made between 1825 and 1835 and identify as Lafayette.
\r\n
\r\nThe fabric contained in this quilt was reprinted in 1876, apparently in celebration of America's centennial. The reprinted fabric is often identified as the Marquis de Lafayette (rather than Jackson), since Lafayette was involved in our revolution, while Jackson was not. I must admit the portrais in the fabric is not a very good likeness of either Lafayette or Jackson.
\r\n
\r\nAnother thing that is interesting about this quilt is that the top of the backing contains an irregularly shaped strip of early fabrics, possibly from an earlier quilt -- maybe to increase the size of the backing. Additionally, along the top of the quilt are a row of narrow loops made out of the same fabric as the binding, maybe used to hang the quilt. (It really is a pretty quilt.)","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"Andrew Jackson Quilt","QuiltTitleF009":"Variable Star","AltNameF011":"Variable Star","OverallWidthF12a":"78","OverallLengthF012b":"76","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Beige","Blue","Cream","Gold","Green","Pink","Purple","Red"],"QuiltSpecColorF014a":["Butterscotch","Indigo Blue","Turkey Red"],"OverallColorF14b":["Multicolor"],"LayFormatF024":"Block pattern","NumBlockF026":"49","SizeBlockF027":"8.5 to 9 inches","ArrangeBlockF028":"Straight","SpacingF029":["Separated by plain sashing","Separated by sashing with cornerstones or connecting blocks"],"SashWidthF032":"2 inches","NumBordersF033":"none","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"FabPrintF037":["Checked","Floral","Geometric","Novelty","Solid/plain","Striped"],"UniqueF037b":"feather prints, printed portrait","ConstrucF038":["Hand Piecing"],"MatUsedF048":"Cotton","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Hand quilting"],"DesignF052a":["Outline","Single parallel lines"],"DesignF052c":["Parallel lines"],"DesignF052d":"X in corner squares","ThrTypeF049a":"cotton","ThrColorF049b":"white","NumStitchedF050":"6","NumStitchF051":"7","WidthF051a":"1.5 to 2 inches","KnotsF051b":"no","MatUsedF044":["Cotton"],"FabStrucF045":["Plain weave"],"ConstrucBindF046":["Separate binding applied"],"BindWidthF047a":".25 inch","UniqueBindF045a":"Several different fabrics used in the binding.

They also thought the back might be hand-dyed and hand woven.","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"Variable Nine Patch","AltNameF011":"Variable Nine Patch","OverallWidthF12a":"83.5","OverallLengthF012b":"84.25","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Blue","Brown","Gold","Pink","Red"],"QuiltSpecColorF014a":["Butterscotch","Double Pink","Madder Red or Cinnamon Red","Prussian Blue or Lafayette Blue","Turkey Red"],"OverallColorF14b":["Multicolor"],"LayFormatF024":"Block pattern","NumBlockF026":"113","SizeBlockF027":"about 7.25 inches ","ArrangeBlockF028":"On point or rotated on 45 degrees","SpacingF029":["Alternating with plain squares"],"NumBordersF033":"None","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"FabPrintF037":["Floral","Plaid","Print","Striped"],"ConstrucF038":["Hand Piecing"],"UniqueBattF048b":"No batting","QuiltTechF049":["Hand quilting"],"DesignF052a":["Grid/crosshatch"],"DesignF052d":"Quilted in a log cabin style, with center square about 1.25 inches, surrounding squarer about .75 inches and span about 10.25 inches","ThrTypeF049a":"Cotton","ThrColorF049b":"White","NumStitchedF050":"7","NumStitchF051":"9","WidthF051a":".75 inches","KnotsF051b":"no","MatUsedF044":["Cotton"],"FabStrucF045":["Plain weave"],"ConstrucBindF046":["Separate binding applied"],"BindWidthF047a":"3/16 inch","NumPiecesF042":"4","WidthPiecesF042a":"13, 23.75, 24.25 and 23.25 inches","OverCondF015":"Excellent/like new","DateInfoF023f":"1830s-1840s","DateQuiltF023":"1800-1849","Owner Associator":"51-150-36","IdentPersonF006":["Quilt owner"],"AcquiredF058":"Purchase","OwnershipF082":"Public","InstInvContrNumF004a":"PAS-008","AccessF080":"Open/Public Domain","DateDataF006b":"2023-10-22","ContactEmail":"pseitas@gmail.com","ReposFile":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-314/CHQP-PAS-0001copy.jpg"],"zoom":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-314/CHQP-PAS-0001a.jpg"],"photocredit079a1":"Patt Seitas","DateF079":"2023-05-09","DateF079_era":"CE","Detail 1":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-314/CHQP-PAS-0001e.jpg"],"Detail 1 Caption":"Backing detail","Detail 2":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-314/IMG_1178.jpg"],"Detail 2 Caption":"Detail","Detail 3":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-314/IMG_1177.jpg"],"Detail 3 Caption":"Detail","Detail 4":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-314/P1000597.jpg"],"Detail 4 Caption":"Detail","verify":"yes","verifiedby":"Beth Donaldson","dateverified":"2023-10-23","dateverified_era":"CE","Pattern":"VARIABLE NINE PATCH","Date":"1800-1849","InstNameF003":["Public Submission"],"InstProjNameF003a":"California Heritage Quilt Project","Contributing Institutions":"MATRIX, Center for Humane Arts, Letters and Social Sciences Online at Michigan State University","Publisher":"Quilt Index","Resource Type":"Still Image","project_id":"51","form_id":"148","owner":"1","created_at":"2023-10-23 00:29:26","updated_at":"2024-02-23 19:16:47"},"sort":["VARIABLE NINE PATCH"]},{"_index":"main_quilt_index_quilt_1_25_","_type":"_doc","_id":"MK5nWZEB8akQsUweirVd","_score":null,"_source":{"kid":"51-148-334","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"Unknown Family Quilt","AltNameF011":"9 inch square","SubjQuiltF025":"White, square, checker, block","OverallWidthF12a":"74 in","OverallLengthF012b":"64 in","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Blue","Brown","Green","Lavender","Peach","Pink","Red","Tan","Turquoise","Yellow"],"QuiltSpecColorF014a":["Indigo Blue","Turkey Red"],"OverallColorF14b":["Multicolor"],"LayFormatF024":"Block pattern","NumBlockF026":"572","SizeBlockF027":"3x3 in","ArrangeBlockF028":"Straight","SpacingF029":["Side by side","Alternating with plain squares"],"BlockStyleF030a":["Squares"],"FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"FabPrintF037":["Floral","Geometric","Multiple scrap","Solid/plain","Striped"],"ConstrucF038":["Hand Piecing"],"MatUsedF048":"Blanket or flannel","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Hand quilting"],"DesignF052a":["All-over-design","Grid square"],"ThrTypeF049a":"Cotton","ThrColorF049b":"White","NumStitchedF050":"24","WidthF051a":"1","KnotsF051b":"no","ConstrucBindF046":["Hand sewn"],"FabFiberTypesF040":["Cotton"],"DescBackF043":["Hand sewn","Same fabric used throughout"],"ColorBackingF040b":["White"],"NumPiecesF042":"3","WidthPiecesF042a":"30 in","OtherFabF040a":"Pieces are slightly different widths","OverCondF015":"Fair/worn","DamageF016":["Disintegration of fabric","Fading","Wear to edge or binding"],"DateQuiltF023":"1930-1949","ReasonsF060":["Home decoration"],"PresUseF062":["Bedding, special occasion"],"LocMadeF057a":"Royal Oak","ProvCountyF057b":"Oakland","ProvStateF057d":"Michigan (MI)","ProvCountryF057f":["United States"],"SourceMatF063":["Sewing scraps","Old clothes"],"RelItemsF088a":"I saw a photograph of this quilt on the back of my grandmother’s couch dated 1959.

\r\nIn the fall of 2006, I took my Aunt Cora to Strawberry, AZ to visit one of her nephews and his wife. We stayed overnight in Payson, AZ and spent a little time in the town’s small quilt shop. I spotted this Jim Shore panel. Knowing that Aunt Cora loved his work, I managed to purchase the panel without her realizing it. I used it as a practice piece for free motion and walking foot quilting. I gave it to her in January 2007, noting that she could view it as either a late, or a very early, Christmas present (inside joke was that one year I sent Christmas cards in July….).
\r\n
\r\nShe loved it and demonstrated that by hanging the piece in pride of place in her home, and then later, in her senior apartment. After she passed away, her daughter, as instructed by Aunt Cora, returned the panel to me. It holds special memories of that trip and of an aunt I loved dearly.","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"The Twelve Days of Christmas","SubjQuiltF025":"The Twelve Days of Christmas","OverallWidthF12a":"20 1/2 in","OverallLengthF012b":"37 1/2 in","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Green","Red"],"LayFormatF024":"Medallion or framed center","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"UniqueF038h":"One piece printed panel","MatUsedF048":"Cotton or polyester blend","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Machine quilting"],"DesignF052a":["In-the-ditch","Outline","Stipple"],"ThrTypeF049a":"Sulky rayon","ThrColorF049b":"Multiple colors to match backgrounds","MatUsedF044":["Cotton"],"FabStrucF045":["Plain weave"],"ConstrucBindF046":["Separate binding applied","Straight grain","Home cut","Hand sewn","Machine sewn"],"BindWidthF047a":"1/4 in","FabFiberTypesF040":["Cotton"],"DescBackF043":["Solid/plain"],"ColorBackingF040b":["Green"],"NumPiecesF042":"1","WidthPiecesF042a":"20 1/2 in","TypeInscripF019":["Signature","Multiple names","Date","Message"],"MethodInscripF021":["Attached label","Ink"],"LocInscripF022":["on back"],"ContInscripF020":"To Cora, January 2007, Merry late/early Christmas!

In 2009, a friend, Kim Davis, taught the technique to several members of Calico Cut Ups, a chapter of the Arizona Quilters Guild. Making the blocks was easy and fast but assembling them was another story. I agonized over the layout. In 2010, we babysat our grandkids over the summer while our daughter finished her RN training. I had finally decided on a layout and went to bed with the intent of sewing it up the next day. Because the pieces were on a flannel backed tablecloth design wall that was tacked to a wall, they were not solidly fastened. Our granddaughter opened the window in the morning to check the weather prior to going to school, and the Oklahoma wind scattered the blocks and ruined the layout. I put the quilt away and did not finish it until 2022 when I saw another OBW with a panel inset of the entire motif in the fabric. So, I added the peacock panel and finished it.

My mother-in-law passed it to me in the 1990s. It was given to the family in the Peapack-Gladstone region of New Jersey. Two family legends are associated with receipt of the quilt.
\r\n
\r\nFirst family legend: My mother-in-law (now deceased) said the quilt was given to my now-husband by a schoolteacher at St. Brigid Catholic Elementary School in the early 1960s. The teacher gave him the quilt for comfort and educational reasons. He had a serious illness and missed a great deal of school in first and second grade. He loved birds and the teacher hoped he could use the quilt to learn the names of birds. The teacher’s name unfortunately has been lost to time. The school is now closed. I checked with the Diocese that operated the school but they were unable to provide any information or names due to privacy laws.
\r\n
\r\nSecond family legend: My brother-in-law (older than my husband) said the quilt was given to him by a prominent civic-minded woman at a library story time when he was a child in the late 1950s. He remembered her name, so I did some follow up. I located one of her grandchildren and we had a lengthy e-mail conversation. The woman in question never quilted. But she crocheted and knitted and was known for her blankets, which she gave away to a wide circle of family and friends. She also offered regular story time for children at the public library at Peapack, New Jersey. This woman’s children were still alive at the time of the email conversation so I emailed photos of the quilt. None recognized it. This version of the family legend makes me wonder if someone gave the quilt to the woman and she then gave it away at library story time.

\r\n
\r\nI collected selvages, and after teaching a selvage project, was given selvages to add to my stash. I cut the selvages 1 1/2” wide off the edges of fabrics. Then I make “slabs” of selvages (aka fabric) by sewing them to light weight pellon. Slabs were about 11-12” wide and 18” long. I cut slabs into 5” squares for this project. The slabs are quilted to Warm and Natural batting and then the bag is stitched together. Straps are made with the same batting. The lining is made and attached, right sides together, by stitching at the opening. An opening is left in a seam to allow for turning.
\r\n
\r\nSlabs and quilting completed in Kuentz Kamp, Palo Verde Patchers, Sun City West, AZ, quilt club, in May 2024.
