Gasperik 02: Antique Quilt Design Sources

Like many expert quiltmakers of her day, Mary Gasperik looked to antique quilts for inspiration and design possibilities. Gasperik owned a copy of Marie Webster's Quilts: Their Story and How to Make Them, which she heavily annotated. Gasperik's antique quilt copies include Double Feather Star, Indian Feather Star, and Indiana Wreath, all of which appeared in Webster's book.
