  • VQF Modern Broderie Perse Supply List
    Modern Broderie Perse Maria Shell www.mariashell.com www.talesofastitcher.com [email protected] Supply List • Assortment of 10-12 pieces of fabric that measure about 18” by 8”. Smaller or larger is fine, but I like the 18” by 8” because it is the size of a fat eight and because it works well with the size of the Wonder-Under fusible. Please read the below comments about selecting fabric. • A quality pair of small scissors. I like the five inch size for this kind of work. • 3-4 pastel or light print fat quarters for your background choices. • 3-4 darker prints for the “table cloth” fabric. • 3 yards of Wonder-Under or your favorite heat activated fusible. • Pressing sheet • Sewing Machine with 1/4” foot, walking foot, and quilting (hopping/darning) foot • Generous fat quarter for quilt back (at least 18” by 22”) • Generous fat quarter of batting (at least 18” by 22”) Fabric When making a Modern Broderie Perse floral bouquet, I have found that there are several types of prints that work really well. Here are some suggestions- • Bold Geometrics, for example, circles, stripes, plaids, zigzags in HIGH contrast col- ors. You should be able to read the print from far away. • Fabrics that read as solids • Fabrics that have prints you can easily use as guidelines for cutting • Two color prints preferably without black and white. For example, a pink and black fabric is good, but a pink and blue fabric would be more interesting. • Black and White prints of all sorts. Sharing Fabric If we all bring in 10 scraps of fabric that are approximately 5” by 18” or smaller to share we will have plenty of fabric to share with each other.

  • Martha's Quilt
    MARTHA’S QUILT Jennifer Brett Roxborogh Martha’s Quilt The history of a Broderie Perse quilt made in Armagh, Ireland in 1795 and the people who have been its guardians. Part One The Family In 1881, a young woman of 27 boarded a ship in Belfast and set sail for New Zealand to marry her fiancé George Hill Willson Mackisack. In her trousseau she had a broderie perse quilt made for her grandmother at her marriage in1795. Both grandmother and granddaughter were named Martha Alicia Brett. The Martha Alicia Brett who migrated to New Zealand was my great grandmother. Martha’s grandmother, Martha (or Matilda) Alicia Black, was born into an Armagh Church of Ireland merchant family in1765 and in December 1795 she married Charles Brett of Belfast. The Black family were well established and although Martha’s father’s first name is not known, her mother’s name was Ann. Martha had two sisters, Maria and Elizabeth and there may have been another sister, Catherine. 1 In 1795, Charles Brett (b. 1752) descended from a family of possibly Anglo-Norman settlers who had been in Ireland from at least the 16 th century, was also Church of Ireland. He was a successful merchant and had recently built a comfortable house named Charleville in Castlereagh on the outskirts of Belfast 2. In November 1795, his mother, Molly, died but three weeks later he was celebrating his marriage to Martha Black. Charles was 43 and Martha 30. 3 An established businessman, Charles had been taking care of his widowed mother since his father died in 1878.

His approach either a replica or a variant of some thing made a little time ago and eliminates the distinction between artifacts so on back without break to the first morning of human time’. and “major” art – architecture, painting, (.Kubler, 2007: 1) The demarcation between art and craft, an invention sculpture. Drawing on the fields of of the Renaissance mind, therefore, becomes unimportant when anthropology and linguistics, Kubler replaced considering objects of utilitarian nature.

  • Jane's Exotic Garden Quilt Is Done in the Broderie Perse Style, a 19Th
    An original quilt by Jane Sassaman for FreeSpirit Fabrics. Approximately 30" x 50". Place the frame shaped interfacing on the back of the Little Leaf fabric. Be sure that it is lined up squarely with the leaf print and fuse. Now cut on your outline through the interfacing/fabric. You should now have an empty frame of fabric. Figure 1. 2. Now we need to design our central character, the tree. Trace the tree shape from the photo on to tracing paper and take it to your local copy shop for enlarging. The tree should extend beyond the inside edges of the fabric border. Figure 3. Figure 2. Do not include the black spirals at the base of the tree, they are separate pieces. 3. Now you need to transfer the tree out- line to another piece of interfacing. If you want your tree to look exactly like Jane’s Exotic Garden Quilt is done in the broderie perse this picture you will need to flip your drawing over and retrace the design on style, a 19th century appliqué technique which imitates Figure 3. embroidered fabrics and oriental rugs. Originally, broderie the back side of the paper. Then trace perse quilts were made using groups of individually cut the reversed design on to the non-stick out chintz flowers which were applied to a whole cloth side of your interfacing.

The quilt is stretched on a frame to make it easier for the women to work on it. Quilting An American Craft BY P HYLLIS M C I NTOSH quilt can warm a bed, decorate a wall, comfort a child in her crib or a AA soldier at war. A quilt also can tell a story, commemorate an event, honor the dead, unite a community, and reflect a culture. Quite a resume for a piece of needlework! And evidence, too, that quilts have captured the hearts and imaginations of Americans unlike any other form of folk art. Quilting has enjoyed a long tradition in the United States and today is more popular than ever. According to a 2003 survey by Quilters Newsletter Magazine, there are more than 21 million American quilters (representing 15 percent of U.S. households), and they spend $2.27 billion a year on their craft. The most dedicated among them are like- ly to have an entire room in their house devoted to quilting and to own more than $8,000 worth of quilting supplies. Their creations range from everyday items such as bed coverings, clothing, and table mats to treasured heirlooms and museum quality works of art. The word quilt itself has come to describe far more than stitched pieces of fabric. Civil rights activist Jesse Jackson used the word to describe American society when he said: “America is not like a blanket––one piece of unbroken cloth, the same color, the same texture, the same size.
