LOG CABIN STRAIGHT FURROW ANTIQUE QUILT, Quaker

LOG CABIN STRAIGHT FURROW ANTIQUE QUILT, Quaker

 



The bold diagonal graphic of the Straight Furrow pattern emerges even though the palette is subdued and contains colors quite close in hue. This effect comes from the play of light on the fine jacquard weave wool and silk combination fabrics that are a treat to examine up close. Exceptional large size for a quilt of this era makes it useful on a queen or king bed, or a powerful graphic hung on a great room wall.
