19th Century Society Crazy Quilt in Turquoise, Pink, Yellow, Navy, Green, Red
Located in Barrington, IL
Hand pieced and hand stitched Society American crazy quilt circa the late 1800s. The quilt is a 7 x 7 square block structure. Each block is about 11” x 11” and was created by a different individual. The material, design and the hand embroidery of each block is a representation of a different member of “the society”. The blocks are connected together using herringbone embroidered seams on a truly wonderful cotton backing. The beautiful quilt was found in the New England region, possibly having been made in Pennsylvania in the early 20th century. The pieces have bright colors including turquoise, red, yellow, blue, and many others which results in a vibrant hand crafted piece of late 1800s art that can be used as wall art. Crazy quilts: These quilts were made up of randomly sewn, abstract shapes, and were often embroidered with fancy stitches and motifs. The name "crazy" comes from the irregular shapes and sizes of the patches, which gave the quilt a broken pottery appearance. Crazy quilts were typically made with three layers, but were usually bound and tied to a backing instead of quilted. They were often used as decorative throws instead of bed coverings. Dimensions: 77” x 77” Date of Manufacture: 4th Quarter of the 1800s Place of Origin: United States Material: Wool, Cotton Condition: Good The Persian Knot, SKU: 2136 American Crazy Quilts, Vintage Crazy Quilts...

Orange Peel Quilt
Located in Darnestown, MD
Several features make this quilt quite unusual. Most obvious is the Orange Peel pattern that is not often seen. It is set within concentric frames that are not one hundred percent consistent in terms of colors but they blend well together. Most unusual is the center applique. It is a takeoff of the overall Orange Peel pattern but with the addition of arms that look like a thistle. This appears to be an original design.

Contemporary hand-sewn Meander quilt by British master maker
Located in London, GB
'Meander' quilt by British artist-maker, Emily Campbell. Emily’s knowledge of sewing combines with the formal and visual principles she learned as a two-dimensional designer to re-imagine the patchwork quilt. She has interpreted traditional patchwork geometry, dispensing with floral prints in favour of bold combinations of solid colour. Emily quilts all her designs for us by hand. Bespoke sizes are therefore possible. An accomplished undergraduate dress and costume maker, Emily progressed from an English degree to a diploma in Clothing Technology and became a pattern maker for the fashion designer Jean Muir. After completing her Master of Fine Arts at Yale School of Art she practised as a graphic designer at Pentagram in New York before embarking on a series of national and international programme director roles in the arts, design and education. In 2012, a quilt made from old denim and canvas work clothes featured in an exhibition about Gee’s Bend (the famed quilting community in Alabama). This prompted Emily to up-cycle the family’s old jeans into her first patchwork quilt. She studied rhythm, rule and variation in Anni Albers’ pattern drawings. She took inspiration from Gustav Klimt, Victor Pasmore and Ellsworth Kelly, and many more artists besides. Emily is the founder of Pemberton Qwilts. This takes its name from Sheila Frances Hayes, née Pemberton, who first taught Emily to sew. Three of Emily’s ‘TV Quilts’ were commissioned by Anya Hindmarch for her concept store at London Fashion Week 2023. These bear a single word of personal significance (see images). Emily was also among the textile artists selected for a group show at David Parr House, Cambridge that year. Helen Chislett...

'Curllusion' quilt in Blanc de Vert colourway by British artist-maker, Emily Campbell. Emily’s knowledge of sewing combines with the formal and visual principles she learned as a two-dimensional designer to re-imagine the patchwork quilt. She has interpreted traditional patchwork geometry, dispensing with floral prints in favour of bold combinations of solid colour. Emily quilts all her designs for us by hand. Bespoke sizes are therefore possible. An accomplished undergraduate dress and costume maker, Emily progressed from an English degree to a diploma in Clothing Technology and became a pattern maker for the fashion designer Jean Muir. After completing her Master of Fine Arts at Yale School of Art she practised as a graphic designer at Pentagram in New York before embarking on a series of national and international programme director roles in the arts, design and education. In 2012, a quilt made from old denim and canvas work clothes featured in an exhibition about Gee’s Bend (the famed quilting community in Alabama). This prompted Emily to up-cycle the family’s old jeans into her first patchwork quilt. She studied rhythm, rule and variation in Anni Albers’ pattern drawings. She took inspiration from Gustav Klimt, Victor Pasmore and Ellsworth Kelly, and many more artists besides. Emily is the founder of Pemberton Qwilts. This takes its name from Sheila Frances Hayes, née Pemberton, who first taught Emily to sew. Three of Emily’s ‘TV Quilts’ were commissioned by Anya Hindmarch for her concept store at London Fashion Week 2023. These bear a single word of personal significance (see images). Emily was also among the textile artists selected for a group show at David Parr House, Cambridge that year.  Helen...
