The American Quilt Study Group had an amazing exhibit of medallion quilts at the New England Quilt Museum. I'm sharing some of them today.
From the NEQM:
AQSG members were challenged to select and study an individual “medallion-style” quilt. Each participant either chose to make a small replica or create a new quilt using the original as inspiration. The NEQM Genre Gallery features 25 of these medallion-style quilts along with photographs of the original inspiration quilts, most of which span the 19th century. Included are personal statements about what the quiltmaker learned during the process and their reflections on the original quilt that inspired them.
I love this! BUT it is the only one I didn't get a photo of the tag. If you know who made it I'd love to add that info here.
