Blanket Backdrop Identified!

Thank you to everyone who wrote in about the beautiful bed covering featured in my April columns. (If you missed reading them, they’re posted below.)

My public library is a wonderful place for books, but the staff members are also great resources. One of the circulation librarians is an avid quilter. When I first saw the photo with the bed covering I immediately thought, “Carol has to see this.” I was right. With a single glance she said, “This isn’t a quilt, it’s a weaving pattern.” Just so happens her daughter knows a lot about woven designs.

The suspense is over. Carol’s daughter Vicki took a look and declared, ” It’s an overshot weave, a variation of a pattern known as Queen’s Anne Lace.”

Thanks also to the knowledgeable FamilyTreeMagazine.com Forum visitors who posted comments there.
