| Plantation Road Quilt |
Every year when Vicki returns to England to visit her
relatives she brings a quilt for one of her cousins. This Blue and White Plantation Road quilt was
one of those gifts made for her cousin Lizzie.
Vicki chose the pantograph Paisley Max by Jodi
Beamish to complement the paisley in the background squares. This was a very large quilt measuring 107” x
94”. Lucky cousin! The Plantation Road Pattern is by Paula Barnes.
In the 19th century
European production of paisley increased, particularly in the Scottish town
from which the pattern takes its modern name.

yourself continually to make many acts of love, for they enkindle and melt the
soul. – Teresa of Avila
