Dr Liv Furman served as the instructor of this course, learning alongside Nia Goins, Bailey Griffin, Jew-El Jones, Jhala Martin, Evamelo Oleita, & Callie Seymour. The class created this quilt in response to learning in their second unit of class, titled Piecing It Together: Black Women’s Makeshifting & Quilting. This unit was grounded in a text by Kimber Thomas regarding Black Southern women’s makeshifting traditions. https://www.southerncultures.org/article/makeshifting/ . After unpacking personal connections to and embodiments of makeshifting, the class was guided to imagine quilt designs that materialized their own dreams for sustainable Black ecologies, while grounded in the history and living legacy of AAAS. The drafts made by each class member were combined to create a rough draft of the quilt. The quilt features a tree with Black and gold speckled leaves against a soft yellow background. A Black femme lounges with her back on the tree, while listening to music. Multiple icons that look like an androgynous head and shoulders, in shades of purple, are interspersed in the tree’s greenery. Each figure represents a member of the class. Each class member’s names are written on the quilt, next to the purple figures. Around the border of the quilt are affirmations written by the students in the class, as well as the course title and date. There is a single purple and yellow flower in each of the four corners of the border. Members of the class helped cut out the patterns used for the applique design. The quilt was pieced and constructed by Dr. Liv Furman. The quilt is on display in the AAAS Department, on the 2nd floor of North Kedzie Hall, during the 2024-2025 academic years.

Therefore, I made him a quilt with musical notes and cut up pieces of his basketball shirts. The notes representing his dedication to orchestra in high school, and the shirts representing his tenacity in sports during high school.
\r\n

According to my research, Ada (Adaline) Romine was the daughter of Clement N. Romine (1823-1900) and Mary McWhorter (1836-1918). Ada was born on April 24, 1860 on a farm in Harrison county, West Virginia. She married Homer Coburn (1841-1922) on April 20, 1910 in Harrison county, WV. She died on May 13, 1946 at Mt. Claire, Harrison county, WV. She did not have any children. While she may have started this quilt when she was 9 years old, it is likely she completed later since "1883" is quilted on the quilt. The nine-patch blocks in this quilt are only 1.24 inches and the individual patches are only about a half inch. These small patches and blocks seem consistent with a nine year old girl who was making a doll quilt. If so, kept on sewing these blocks together for decades until she had a full bed-sized quilt.","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"Ada Romine's Quilt","AltNameF011":"Nine Patch variation ","OverallWidthF12a":"72 inches","OverallLengthF012b":"86 inches","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Blue","Brown","Burgundy","Cream","Green","Pink","Yellow"],"QuiltSpecColorF014a":["Double Pink","Madder Brown"],"OverallColorF14b":["Multicolor"],"LayFormatF024":"Block pattern","NumBlockF026":"120","SizeBlockF027":"6-6.25 x 6.5 inches","ArrangeBlockF028":"Straight","SpacingF029":["Alternating with plain squares"],"NumBordersF033":"2","BordDescF034":"one inch inner cream border, outer 2 inch double pink border","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"FabPrintF037":["Multiple scrap"],"ConstrucF038":["Hand Piecing"],"MatUsedF048":"Cotton","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Hand quilting"],"DesignF052a":["All-over-design"],"DesignF052c":["Parallel lines"],"ThrTypeF049a":"cotton","ThrColorF049b":"white","NumStitchedF050":"7-8","NumStitchF051":"9","WidthF051a":"1/2 inch","KnotsF051b":"no","MatUsedF044":["Cotton"],"FabStrucF045":["Plain weave"],"ConstrucBindF046":["Separate binding applied"],"BindWidthF047a":".25 inches","FabFiberTypesF040":["Cotton"],"DescBackF043":["Hand sewn"],"ColorBackingF040b":["Cream"],"NumPiecesF042":"four","WidthPiecesF042a":"two pieces are 5.75 inches, one piece is 34 inches and one piece is 32.5 inches","TypeInscripF019":["Date"],"MethodInscripF021":["In the quilting"],"LocInscripF022":["on border"],"ContInscripF020":"1883","DateInscripF020a":"1883","OverCondF015":"Good/moderate use","DamageF016":["Stains"],"DateBegunF023a":"Perhaps in 1869 (according to family lore, quilter was 9 years old when she made the quilt)","DateFinishF023b":"1883","DateQuiltF023":"1876-1900","ProvCountyF057b":"Harrison county","ProvStateF057d":"West Virginia (WV)","ProvCountryF057f":["United States"],"StateF107":"West Virginia (WV)","CountyF106":"Harrison","CountryF108":["United States"],"BirthplaceStateF098b":"West Virginia","BirthplaceCountryF098d":"United States","BirthDateF099":"April 24, 1860","DeathF100":"May 13, 1946","EnviroF104c":["Rural"],"Owner Associator":"51-150-36","OwnerNameF082a":"Patt Seitas","IdentPersonF006":["Quilt owner"],"AcquiredF058":"Purchase","OwnershipF082":"Public","InstInvContrNumF004a":"PAS-010","AccessF080":"Open/Public Domain","DateDataF006b":"2023-09-11","ContactEmail":"pseitas@gmail.com","ReposFile":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-244/IMG_0976.jpg"],"zoom":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-244/IMG_0976.jpg"],"photocredit079a1":"Patt Seitas","DateF079":"2023-04-12","DateF079_era":"CE","Detail 1":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-244/IMG_0977.jpg"],"Detail 1 Caption":"Detail","Detail 2":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-244/IMG_0978.jpg"],"Detail 2 Caption":"The individual nine blocks are about 1.25 inches.

Many fabrics were auditioned and rejected before the final landscape merged. Integrating the season changes for a continuous flowing design was most difficult.
\r\n
\r\nMany techniques were used in this work: raw-edge appliqué, fusing, piecing, hand sewing, machine thread painting and quilting. A modern technique of an old tradition of Broiderie Perse is the main technique. It is a style of appliqué that uses printed elements in fabric to create a scene. It was most popular in the 17th century and probably travelled from India as there are earlier findings there.
\r\n
\r\nI meticulously cut out my images from quilting cotton, melding and fusing them on a muslin foundation much like a watercolour painting. When my composition is completed my sewing machine becomes my paintbrush. I use lots of different thread colors to blend the collage. To finish my quilt I bind the edges by hand and sew a sleeve on the back for hanging.
\r\n
\r\nQuilt Alberta was made with love to celebrate the heritage and beauty of the province. It has been on display in many venues including the "Oh Canada" international show in New Zealand 2011 and Westin Hotel for Calgary Stampede. It has been resting in a safe place for a while and now needs a home. A private home or public venue would be ideal for all to enjoy.

\r\n
\r\nIn August of 2008, I attended a “Perfect Hand Quilting Without Pain” class in Folsom, California. It was taught by Australian quilter Liuxin Newman, the “Thimble Lady,” who is a prize winning quilter achieving 12 stitches per inch in her work.
\r\n
\r\nThe quilt sandwich was hooped with about two inches of give. Instead of using the tip of one finger to push the needle (causing knuckle compression/damage) and the other to guide the needle on the underside of the quilt (causing pricked fingertips), the thimbled finger and thumb form a “C” shape and the hand is rocked back and forth to fold the quilt onto the needle. Liuxin’s thimble fits over the first knuckle so the palm side of the finger is used in the rocking motion, eliminating stress on the hands and fingers. The thimble has deep holes to hold the needle.
\r\n
\r\nLiuxin designed a quilting hoop held upright by a T bar that you sit on, insuring the hoop is in the correct position to prevent strain on the neck, back, and shoulders. I used a custom sized quilting chair built by my husband, Robert Simmons.
\r\n
\r\nThis Angel wall hanging is the first real project where I used this technique. I made it as a gift for Pat Fernow. The system works well and I have used this new skill in several projects.

The piece, completely hand sewn, was a long rectangle with an unfinished row on one side. I rearranged a couple of rows to create a shorter, wider rectangle and replaced a few cores using feedsack fabric from my stash, including the yellow core with a figure of a woman ironing.
\r\n
\r\nThe backing was salvaged from a $15.80 quilt found at the Roanoke Antique Mall in Roanoke, VA (vendor A84-BR, 10/7/2015). It was completely machine stitched in “crazy quilt style,” with feedsack fabric on the front and large sections of feedsack fabrics on the back. The quilt was made in a pillowcase method: stitched right sides together on 3 sides, then turned right sides out and the open side turned in to form a knife edge seam. I unstitched to salvage the large pieces which I then combined to create the Apple Core backing.

When my choice of theme was accepted, I asked my great niece Whitney Cain to create the line drawing of Arianrhod for me to use. While waiting to hear if the finished quilt would be accepted, I decided to add more ivy leaves and do more coloring to the image with metallic fabric paint. I hesitated about asking if I could send in new photos since the deadline had passed weeks before, so this quilt was judged by the original photos I had sent in earlier. I've always wondered if I would have been allowed to change the photos and then maybe it would have gotten accepted with the changes. This is not something that is supposed to be done, so I wouldn't recommend it. Some quilt contests mention that if the quilt looks too different from the original submitted images, it can be rejected even if it was shipped to location. I am much happier with how it appears now and I'm glad I added more details to the quilt. Arianrhod did get accepted to an online exhibit, E Pluribus Unum III, curated by Ann Flaherty on the QuiltArt site in 2016. That exhibit was online until about 2019/2020 when the QuiltArt site was taken down. I did submit this quilt to Road to California 2017 but it wasn't accepted. I did not enter this quilt in any other national shows because the size did not fit any appropriate categories. Artist statementThe moon is featured very often in myths around the world and many epic figures have powers related to the moon. I've been fascinated by mythology and legends, with the related art, all my life. Celtic art has inspired most of the quilts I've designed in my quilting career. I've spent countless hours learning about this dynamic style of portraying fantastic creatures and mythic heroes. While Celtic knotwork applique is what I'm best known for, I'm currently exploring Celtic designs made with other techniques. This unique opportunity provided the perfect chance for me to make a very different kind of Celtic quilt and to collaborate with my great niece, Whitney Cain, who is a very talented young artist. Whitney draws in a delightful anime cartoon style. I provided her with the details about Arianrhod and her legends so that she could do a line drawing for me to color, stitch and embellish. I thoroughly enjoyed the process of making this quilt, which allowed me to grow more comfortable with several new techniques. I hope to make more quilts about Celtic heroes and heroines as well as other legendary characters.","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"Arianrhod","QuiltTitleF009":"Arianrhod","SubjQuiltF025":"goddess, arianrhod, moon, woman, female, ivy, welsh","OverallWidthF12a":"18 inches","OverallLengthF012b":"30 inches","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Blue","Green","Purple","White","Yellow"],"OverallColorF14b":["Multicolor"],"LayFormatF024":"Nontraditional or art","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabPrintF037":["Solid/plain"],"ConstrucF038g":["Attachments (beading, charms, buttons, etc.)","Ink drawing","Painting"],"EmbMatF039":["Other attachments"],"UniqueF038h":"Crayons, indelible black ink for faux stitching lines, metallic fabric paint for highlights, silk leaves on plastic stems.","MatUsedF048":"Polyester","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Machine quilting"],"DesignF052a":["Meander/free motion"],"ThrTypeF049a":"rayon","ThrColorF049b":"white, yellow, varigated green, purple, gold, blue, gray","MatUsedF044":["Cotton"],"ConstrucBindF046":["Separate binding applied"],"BindWidthF047a":"1/2 inch","UniqueBindF045a":"Stripe cut crosswise.","FabFiberTypesF040":["Cotton"],"DescBackF043":["Same fabric used throughout"],"ColorBackingF040b":["Black","Blue","Gray","Red","Teal","White","Yellow"],"NumPiecesF042":"one","TypeInscripF019":["Date","Place"],"MethodInscripF021":["Attached label"],"LocInscripF022":["multiple locations"],"ContInscripF020":"Arianrhod, Welsh Moon Goddess September 2015 made by Scarlett Rose Anderson, California","DateInscripF020a":"2015-09","OtherTypeInscripF019a":"Written with indelible ink on the front at the bottom edge in all capital letters: ARIANRHOD - WELSH MOON GODDESS","OverCondF015":"Excellent/like new","DateBegunF023a":"2015","DateFinishF023b":"2015-12","DateQuiltF023":"2000-2025","ReasonsF060":["Challenge or contest entry"],"OtherF060a":"Fly Me To The Moon Invitational Exhibit by Susanne M.

It was designed by Dan Morris for Quilting Treasures. I decided to use it for hand quilting practice. The circles around the sun are straight lines, 1/4 of an inch apart. I outlined the features of the sun face. For the borders, I simply quilted from edge to edge, and the quilting in the bands of horses is a cross hatch.
\r\n
\r\nI learned how the tight quilting, in this case, around the sun, pulls up the fabric and distorts the remainder of the piece. The face does not have much quilting and it is puffy. The straight line, edge to edge quilting does not add to the piece because the quilting cannot be seen.
\r\n
\r\nRegardless, its a beautiful wall hanging and special because our son gave it to me.

The Moon invitational exhibit, organized by Susanne Miller Jones for the 50th Anniversary of Man Landing on the Moon. It was one of two art quilts that I designed and made, but it was the only one accepted. Each artist submitted themes for their proposed quilts and if their theme(s) were chosen, they could then make their quilts to submit for jurying into the exhibit. I had submitted Bad Moon Rising and Arianrhod as my two theme choices for the Moon in popular culture half of the exhibit. The other half depicts astronauts, spacecraft, etc., from NASA as tributes to the anniversary.
\r\n 
\r\nI was one of 130 artists representing 8 countries who created the 179 quilts in this multiyear touring exhibit. My quilt did not tour for the extensive show list given on the flymetothemoon.gallery page, only to those exhibits which showed almost all, or all the quilts. The actual exhibits where my quilt appeared is listed in the Exhibits section. This art quilt collection was published in an exhibit book by Shiffer Publishing.
\r\n 
\r\nI picked words that are from the sixties to fit the theme for the fabric marker graffiti on the denim. One word, Wicked, actually has a double meaning for me because I am a fan of the musical Wicked, which is the story of the Wicked Witch from the Land of OZ. I used a spray bottle of fabric paint to make the blood splatters, in memory of the violent protests of the era.
\r\n 
\r\nHere is my quilt description that accompanied my art quilt:
\r\nThis Creedence Clearwater Revival song was a favorite of mine when I was in middle school. I didn't truly understand the lyrics at that time, but I loved the catchy tune and I played the 45rpm record of the song over and over. I am amazed now that my parents allowed that! When I was older, I finally understood the seriousness of the lyrics and how it related to that difficult time in our country's history. I chose to interpret this song in that context. 
\r\n
\r\nBefore I drew on the denim, I spent many hours rediscovering my skill with writing in the balloon style that was so popular back then. I remember decorating the paperbag book covers of all my school books, and some of my homework, with this graffiti. 
\r\nFor this quilt, I cut up my oldest and most worn pair of jeans and burned ragged holes in the denim to give me places to add the flame fabric. This was a very nostalgic piece for me to make, despite the seriousness of the issues of the time period.

She is the author of Quilting with Japanese Fabrics and co-author of Asian Elegance: Quilting with Japanese Fabrics and More with her daughter, Sylvia. Kitty used one of patterns from her first book for this beautiful gift. Scarlett first met Kitty at the 1988 East Bay Heritage Quilters conference in Oakland, California, where her Cranes quilt was on display. Kitty was the only quilt artist outside of the Bay Area who had entered a quilt in this show. Scarlett and Mary Peard hung around her quilt, hoping to catch Kitty and they did! They were successful in convincing Kitty to enter her quilt in the 1988 Quilter's Sew-Ciety of Redding quilt show, held at that time at Enterprise High School, Redding, California.

\r\nBlack Butterfly
\r\nMy sista, my sista,
\r\nBlack butterfly
\r\nYou are brilliant, you are beautiful.
\r\nYou are loved, and you are kind.
\r\nIf you can dream it, you can do it.
\r\nLift your hands and take flight.
\r\nYou are loved and enough.
\r\nLive your truth, shine your light.

\r\nI created this quilted oval piece during my doctoral practicum project in the College of Education at Michigan State University (MSU). Specifically, this piece was created in response to my experiences during the capstone portion of my practicum project, the "Sista-Scholar Storytelling Retreat.” Before the retreat I held (2)1-hour conversations with a group of 4 Black womxn graduate students in the College of Education from throughout the diaspora and invited discussion about 1) our unique and individual experiences as Black womxn in the doctoral program, as well 2) what sustains us in these spaces and beyond. I created artwork in response to each of those group discussions.","TypeObjF008":"Quilt blocks or pieces","OwnerNameF010":"Black Butterflies Intergenerational Communities of Care ","QuiltTitleF009":"Black Butterflies Intergenerational Communities of Care ","ShapeEdgeF013":"Rounded","OtherShapeEdgeF013a":"Oval ","PredomColorsF014":["Black","Blue","Green","Purple","Red","Yellow"],"LayFormatF024":"Medallion or framed center","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"ConstrucF038":["Hand Piecing"],"ConstrucF038b":["Hand Applique"],"ConstrucF038g":["Embroidery"],"MatUsedF048":"Cotton","Maker Associator":"51-150-26","QuiltTopF054":"Furman, Liv ","QuiltedByF055":"Furman, Liv ","CityF106a":"Lansing","StateF107":"Michigan (MI)","BirthplaceCityF098a":"Louisville","BirthplaceStateF098b":"Kentucky","DateDataF006b":"2024-06-23","ContactEmail":"furmanol@msu.edu","ReposFile":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-464/Practicum_Quilt_Black_Butterfly_Community_Full_Quilt.jpeg"],"zoom":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-464/Practicum_Quilt_Black_Butterfly_Community_z.jpeg"],"Detail 1":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-464/Practicum_Quilt_Black_Butterfly_Community_Side.jpeg"],"Detail 2":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-464/Practicum_Quilt_Black_Butterfly_Community_Zoom_1.jpeg"],"verify":"yes","verifiedby":"Beth Donaldson","dateverified":"2024-06-24","dateverified_era":"CE","Pattern":"BLACK BUTTERFLIES INTERGENERATIONAL COMMUNITIES OF CARE ","Maker":"[\"FURMAN, LIV \"]","InstNameF003":["Public Submission"],"InstProjNameF003a":"Black Diaspora Quilt History 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":"2024-06-23 22:34:10","updated_at":"2024-06-24 16:13:37"},"sort":["BLACK BUTTERFLIES INTERGENERATIONAL COMMUNITIES OF CARE "]},{"_index":"main_quilt_index_quilt_1_25_","_type":"_doc","_id":"-65nWZEB8akQsUweirRd","_score":null,"_source":{"kid":"51-148-219","essay":"Purchased on Ebay in December 2017 from Ebay seller "fourthcornerfinds".

She purchased the furry cat ears and the outfit, doing her own makeup and buying a wig. Everyone in the group that went to SacAnime in January 2013 had a cat girl cosplay to wear for day 3 of the event. 
\r\n 
\r\nWhit sketched a cat girl design and then hand back stitched it on muslin. She did three versions of the cat girl, one with black embroidery floss, one with various colors of embroidery floss and one with crayon coloring as well as the hand embroidery. She pieced the trimmed down blocks together, sandwiched it with a piece of batting and the same fabric as the border was used for the backing. Each block was outline quilted and the rest safety pinned.
\r\n 
\r\nShe didn't get around to doing the rest of the quilting to finish this project and the Cat Girl UFO was stored for many years as Whit moved around. In September of 2022, Whit discovered that the basement where the UFO was stored in a box, had flooded. It had rotted and was salvageable, so Whit had to throw it away. Lucky for her, Aunt Scarlett had photographed this UFO so it could be documented.","TypeObjOtherF008a":"Quilt top sandwiched with backing and batting, partially quilted but not bound.","OwnerNameF010":"Cat Girl Quilt","SubjQuiltF025":"cat, girl, anime, cosplay, hand embroidery","OverallWidthF12a":"approx. 33 inches","OverallLengthF012b":"approx. 17 inches","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Black","Blue","Cream","Green","Red"],"OverallColorF14b":["Multicolor"],"LayFormatF024":"Block pattern","NumBlockF026":"3","SizeBlockF027":"approx. 8 inches by 12 inches","ArrangeBlockF028":"Straight","SpacingF029":["Separated by vertical strips"],"SashWidthF032":"approx. 2 inches","NumBordersF033":"1","BordDescF034":"Approx. 3 Inch strips of the same print as the sashing and backing.","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"FabPrintF037":["Plaid","Solid/plain"],"ConstrucF038":["Machine Piecing"],"ConstrucF038g":["Embroidery"],"EmbMatF039":["Cotton thread"],"MatUsedF048":"Polyester","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Machine quilting"],"DesignF052a":["In-the-ditch"],"ThrTypeF049a":"cotton","ThrColorF049b":"cream","FabFiberTypesF040":["Cotton"],"DescBackF043":["Print","Same fabric used throughout"],"ColorBackingF040b":["Blue","Cream","Green","Red"],"NumPiecesF042":"1","OtherFabF040a":"Same print as the sashing and border on the front.","FeaturesF053":"This unfinished quilt was discovered to have rotted by soaking in a flooded basement, so it was thrown away in 2022.","DateQuiltF023":"2000-2025","ReasonsF060":["Personal enjoyment"],"OtherF060a":"Inspired by the cat girl cosplay worn at SacAnime in January 2013.","OthPresUseF062a":"Quilt was thrown away because it had rotted in a flooded basement.","LocMadeF057a":"Redding","ProvCountyF057b":"Shasta","ProvStateF057d":"California (CA)","ProvCountryF057f":["United States"],"SourceMatF063":["Sewing scraps"],"TopSourceF064":["Original to maker"],"CommSourceF064b":"Whitney drew herself as a Cat Girl, a generic anime character.","Maker Associator":"51-150-68","QuiltTopF054":"Anthony, Whitney","QuiltedByF055":"Anthony, Whitney","AccessF080":"Restricted","HolderF080a":"Anthony, Whitney","DateDataF006b":"2024-04-17","ContactEmail":"spooplesart@gmail.com","ReposFile":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-403/Anthony.Whitney.Cat.Girl.Quilt.700.jpg"],"zoom":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-403/Anthony.Whitney.Cat.Girl.Quilt.JPG"],"photocredit079a1":"Scarlett Rose","DateF079":"2013-08-03","DateF079_era":"CE","Detail 1":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-403/Anthony.Whitney.Cat.Girl.Quilt.closeup.700.jpg"],"Detail 1 Caption":"Closeup of the 3 hand embroidered cat girl blocks","Detail 2":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-403/Anthony.Whitney.Cat.Girl.outline.700.jpg"],"Detail 2 Caption":"Closeup of hand embroidered black outline cat girl block, top half.","Detail 3":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-403/Anthony.Whitney.Cat.Girl.outline.legs.700.jpg"],"Detail 3 Caption":"Closeup of hand embroidered black outline cat girl block, lower half.","Detail 4":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/51-148-403/Anthony.Whitney.Cat.Girl.SacAnime.700.jpg"],"Detail 4 Caption":"Whit in her Cat Girl cosplay at SacAnime in January 2013.","verify":"yes","verifiedby":"Beth Donaldson","dateverified":"2024-04-17","dateverified_era":"CE","Pattern":"CAT GIRL QUILT","Maker":"[\"ANTHONY, WHITNEY\"]","Date":"2000-2025","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":"2024-04-17 16:20:56","updated_at":"2024-04-18 04:11:50"},"sort":["CAT GIRL QUILT"]},{"_index":"main_quilt_index_quilt_1_25_","_type":"_doc","_id":"oq5nWZEB8akQsUweirRd","_score":null,"_source":{"kid":"51-148-97","essay":"This quilt is an original pattern made by Tracy Pierceall of Springfield, Illinois.

About 2015, it was purchased on Ebay. In 2022, the quilt top was layered with a thin cotton batting and a blue reproduction cotton backing. On July 4, 2023, a group of state park volunteers who were experienced quilters put the quilt into a quilt frame at Old Town San Diego State Historic Park as part of the 4th of July Event at the state park. Other antique quilt red, white and blue quilts were also displayed.
\r\n
\r\nThe quilt frame used was composed of 1” x 2”pieces of wood for the quilt rails, wood stanchions made by the historic wood workers, and clamps made by the historic black smith shop. The state park’s Historic Quilt Guild (Shelley Brennan, Leah Estrin, Ginny Pence, Patt Seitas, and Carol Ann Vorce) generally quilted for two hours on Friday mornings on the porch of the “Threads of the Past” building. Among other things, the quilters talked to the public about what was a quilt, the age of the quilt top, and listened to the public share their own stories about quilting. Many people were very startled about the age of the fabrics in the quilt top and repeated the myth that all quilts were inspired by thriftiness and made with fabric scraps. (I suspect the maker of this quilt bought her fabrics new for this quilt.) Since visitors are commonly curious about quilt block names, we told visitors that the common names for the block pattern included “Churn Dash” (we had a picture of churn dash so people could see what it looked since few people churn butter by hand today), “Monkey Wrench,” “Hole in the Barn Door,” “Hens and Chickens” and many other names. (Indeed, I know of no other block that has more names.) Among the other names was “Chinese Coin.” We showed an old Chinese coin that had a square hole in the center. We learned from a visitor that there were similar coins in Korea and the custom was to keep the coins tied together on a length of string. We also asked visitors what they would name the block. Among the suggestions were “Ninja Star” and “Dragon Teeth.

\r\nNov-Dec 2022
\r\n
\r\nThis wall hanging was made in a Palo Verde Patchers quilt club special interest group, the Mod Squad Rebels. It was in response to an ugly fabric quarter challenge. Each person brought an ugly fat quarter that was put into a box. Each person reached in the box without looking and pulled out a fat quarter to work with. My ugly fat quarter was an old holiday fabric, Woodland Winter from Hoffman International Fabrics. I could not find when it was produced, but it is now considered a “vintage” fabric and is no longer printed. The cream and navy blue/gold print were from my stash.
\r\n
\r\nThe inspiration for the piece was the Modern Churn pattern for a quilt by Tammy Silvers of Tamarinis. I drew and colored several layouts to come up with the final plan. The layout combined with the big stitch quilting look give the piece a modern look in spite of the fact that the fabrics are out of date.","TypeObjF008":"Finished quilt","OwnerNameF010":"Churned Fat Quarter","OverallWidthF12a":"15 1/2 in","OverallLengthF012b":"15 1/2 in","ShapeEdgeF013":"Straight","PredomColorsF014":["Blue","Cream"],"LayFormatF024":"Block pattern","NumBlockF026":"1","SizeBlockF027":"11 3/4 in X 11 3/4 in","ArrangeBlockF028":"Straight","BlockStyleF030a":["Squares"],"NumBordersF033":"1","BordDescF034":"1 border on 2 sides, border made up of 1/2 a churn dash block","FiberTypesF035":["Cotton"],"FabricTypeF036":["Broadcloth"],"FabPrintF037":["Floral","Print"],"ConstrucF038":["Machine Piecing"],"ConstrucF038g":["Embroidery"],"EmbMatF039":["Cotton thread"],"UniqueF038h":"Big stitch quilting effect; stitching does not go through all 3 layers; #40 Perle cotton","MatUsedF048":"Cotton or polyester blend","BattLoftF048a":"Thin","QuiltTechF049":["Machine quilting"],"DesignF052a":["In-the-ditch"],"ThrTypeF049a":"Polyester","ThrColorF049b":"invisible ","UniqueBindF045a":"Quilt is finished with a facing","FabFiberTypesF040":["Cotton"],"DescBackF043":["Machine sewn","Print"],"ColorBackingF040b":["Blue","Cream"],"NumPiecesF042":"3","WidthPiecesF042a":"15 1/2 in","OtherFabF040a":"Includes a selvage from the \"ugly fabric,\" Woodland Winter by Hoffman International Fabrics","TypeInscripF019":["Single","Date","Place","Message"],"MethodInscripF021":["Attached label","Ink"],"LocInscripF022":["on back"],"ContInscripF020":"Churned Fat Quarter, by Margaret Lau Simmons, for the Palo Verde Patchers Mod Squad Rebels Ugly Fat Quarter Challenge.

session of the Palo Verde Patchers Mod Squad Rebels Special Interest Group (SIG) that I co-lead. I used a 5” charm pack, Splere, designed by Bridgette Heitland of ZEN CHIC for Moda Fabrics. The clamshells were made by stitching the wrong side of the fusible lightweight Pellon to the right side of the fabric along the curved line and then turning the clamshell right side out. The fusible side is then fused to the batting/backing sandwich. As a quilt as you go project, the clamshells are stitched down along the curve with a blind hem stitch. The project drew the largest number of attendees (28) we’ve ever had for the SIG.
\r\n
\r\nClamshells was entry # 902 in the Modern Category of the Palo Verde Patcher’s There’s No Place Like Home 2/24 - 24/2024 biennial quilt show. The show was held at the Palm Ridge Recreation Center in Sun City West, AZ. The quilt was judged by Cindy Erickson, a Nationally Certified Judge. Her comments are as follows:
\r\nBest Features of the Quilt Are:
\r\n     • Well balanced use of prints and colors.
\r\n     • Applique is generally well done.
\r\n     • Edge finish is well done.
\r\nAreas that Need Improvement:
\r\n     • Take care edges of appliques are uniform
