One of the quilt guilds I belonged to has an auction of quilts at their annual show.
This was a fantastic way to aquire some wonderful quilts and donate to the guild for expenses.
This is one of the quilts I purchased. It was created by Barbara Wessel.
The strips that create the log cabin blocks are 1/4" wide and the completed quilt is 21" square.
Technically it is not a "miniature" quilt as a miniature quilt is 1:12 scale. If this were enlarged by 12 it would be 242 inches!
It is made up of miniature blocks that create a wall quilt. She does precision work with her electric needle. She even did the quilting with her electric needle and it is perfectly placed on the blocks - not an easy way to get perfect placement.
It is reminiscent of an antique quilt.
I am so happy to be the owner of this wonderful piece.
