More Antique Eye Candy

Yes, Yes, Yes, I have been holding out on you. Here are some more pictures of another stunning antique crazy quilt. I can only find two pictures of it. One of the WHOLE quilt, and one close up, I thought I had taken more....................... Ahyhooo, These pictures are for the making of more inspiration! As y'all can see the display was simply breath taking! This one I was told was made after America won some sort of yachting cup In the 1800's.(I cannot remember the name of it. I thought that I had better right it down at the show then thought:"NNAAHH, I will remember the name." Yeah right I forgot it!)

As y'all can see this quilt is as stunning as the first one! I do love the ship in the middle of this one! The satin flower in the top picture......I would like to try and re-create it is just awesome!!



I still have pictures of smaller crazy quilts from this display that I will save for another post!

This one seems to be smaller than the first one, but it has a ton of work in it, too! Excellent, and thanks for posting them.
