Busman's Holiday

Made from material from English calico bolt ends, this 1825 quilt was a stunner and part of the Connecticut Quilts Pieces of American History exhibit at the Connecticut Historical Society in Hartford. Its structure is a square in a square, but you can't see it until you back up (or take a photo). Quite taken with this.
