Quilts
YOU may be a confirmed "quilt fan" and have a chest full of beautiful coverlets and yet be
eager for one more handsome pattern; or you may be just on the verge of attempting your first quilt.
At any rate, you surely cannot be indifferent to the charms of patchwork - that simply isn't being done! This wholesome revival of quilt making which is so thoroughly sweeping the country is far more than a fad.
Quilts - Quilt Designs...

We have devised an hundred ways to fabricate floor coverings, draperies, and bedding. Which brings us to quilts and the no end of fascinating patterns and tales in their history. Through all the changing fads of woven beadbelts or melon seed portieres our quilts have been always with us.
A wholesome thing it is, too, that American women have so saved and planned and pieced. To have wrought beauty even from beautiful surroundings has not always been achieved; but to salvage beauty and usefulness from coarse waste materials was the everyday accomplishment of our pioneer mothers who hooked rugs and pieced quilts.
Some way we are apt to think of the quilt makers as mature or even old, but a second thought assures us they were often merely girls. Pioneer movements are not sponsored by those who have passed life's meridian. It takes youth, with its unspoiled imaginings to blaze trails, to leave the family hearth for the open road, to hazard security for chance.
So most of the families who surged their way westward were young as the civilization which they were formulating. A girlwife, driving an ox team, with her firstborn held close in her strong young arms or under her stronger young heart, was the heroine of the day.
Not that they called her a heroine then; no; but her timid sister who stayed with "pa and ma" back in York State or Ca'lina may have spent the rest of her spinster days in envying willful Emily who rode away with John.
And the story of their wanderings, their few original possessions, their accumulations, the friendships formed, their abiding faith and the home established, is the story of patchwork quilts.
Study the names of patterns and again you will know they were so christened by young ladies of imagination, sometimes devout, sometimes droll but always kindled by that divine spark of originality. Listen to this for a less than 500 word history, all quilt names stitched in bed coverlets, which are more comforting, if not more enduring, than words graven in stone:

A DRUNKARD'S PATH is easy enough to explain, once the start is made! And this is not a temperance lecture either. It is a set of instructions and cutting patterns for one of the most attractive old-time quilts in the list.
Colors should be sharply contrasted, that is the light really light, and the dark quite dark. Then they piece together into two separate blocks A and B, each 8 inches square, and these set together as shown into any desired size.
These do not allow for seams, so cut them 1/4 inch larger all around. The light center of B may be cut in one piece instead of four as shown.
Borders in strips of both colors used are specially good on a quilt of startling design such as this.
Material Estimate: This quilt takes equal amounts of light and dark, but they do not cut to as perfect advantage as they appear, so would allow 41/2 yards of light and 41/2 yards of dark. 55 blocks of A, 55 blocks of B, 10 blocks wide by 11 blocks long or 80 inches by 88 inches.
A Maple Leaf or any other Leaf design would quilt nicely on the large white spaces, with a Feather Circle in the large centers.
