Becky's Top Is Finished

Becky Brown's Hospital Sketches top is finished and looks like this
 (a digital mockup---quilt top awaiting hand quilting)

We've been showing her blocks all year, stitched from Vicki Welch's hand dyed cottons.


Can't wait to see this gorgeous top quilted (but hand work takes time).


Her border inspiration was a quilt by Hannah Johnson Haines of Illinois
Collection of the Rock Island County Historical Society, Illinois,
recorded in the Illinois project and pictured in their book.

Variations of that border are found from New York to the Rocky Mountains. Xenia Cord gave an AQSG paper on what she's called the Vessel, Vine & Floral border---an amazingly popular border.


Hannah's directional blocks inspired the Hospital Sketches set.
Here's a post on similar quilts.
