Dimensions: 35" x 46-1/2". (Photo is a block detail: the quilt contains six Airplane blocks.) Complete instructions for a Crib Quilt Designed by Marsha McCloskey The design for “Jack’s Airplane Quilt” is based on a pieced Airplane from the Carrie Hall collection of patchwork designs. Dating from the 1920s or 30s, I thought it was the perfect image for a quilt for my first grandson, Jack, when he was born. I have used paper-foundation piecing for the triangles in the Airplanes and strip piecing for the little four patches. Reproduction prints from the 30s and 40s in red, white and blue provide a lively and whimsical fabric theme. Templates and quilting motifs included. |
