Last sunday, we from den Haan & Wagenmakers, and our neighbour of Birdblocks, went to the exhibition of antique Dutch quilts, owned by An Moonen (top picture). The following pictures, are of my personal favorite, "Gooische Meisjes", that is featured in the new book by Petra Prins ;
Op de foto van Merel en Elsbeth, zien jullie hoe klein het quiltje is. De sterretjes zijn maar 7 x 7 cm!! Ook de andere quilt waren prachtig, maar ik denk dat dit wel even genoeg foto's waren?
I love this quilt, for the fantastic fabrics that were combined!! The stars are just 7 x 7 cm, thats less then 3" square! The foto of Elsbeth and Merel, tells you just how small the quilt is.
This is actually a double quilt, this is the backside;
Again, beautiful fabrics!!
Dit is de achterkant van Gooische Meisjes!!
