Cathy will be teaching a 6 month Block of the Month called Rachel Remembered 1820-1850. This is Betsy Chutchian’s for Moda. Betsy is known for her classic reproduction prints inspired by moving historical stories.
Rachel Remembered’s inspiration derives from an antique quilt that included a print commemorating General Andrew Jackson. Seeing that print mixed with the many beautiful floral and chintz prints was a reminder of his wife, Rachel, who passed away after he was elected President of the United States but before he was inaugurated. Soft golds, federal blues, a deep shade of red and creamy background prints complete the feel of this vintage collection.
Come in and see the blocks that Cathy has finished. This is an absolutely beautiful quilt and you will love it. You can sign up at the shop or call 812-346-4731 to reserve a spot.
Sharynn’s Quilt Box has received the newest line in Janome long arm quilting machines. This machine will be on display beginning the first part of June. Watch Facebook for the preview.
