This amazing redwork quilt in my collection is too wonderful not to share with everyone. The embroidery designs are both unique and beautiful. The pieced sashing makes this quilt a real gem. I hope you'll enjoy creating your own heirloom week by week.

The finished size if you recreate the antique quilt is 81" x 81". I'm also giving you instructions to make the quilt finish 88" x 88" if you want to make a queen-size quilt.

• Use any thread and fabric color you like to embroider the 49 blocks.  I own embroidered quilts made using red, cheddar, pink, and blue thread. You could use multi-color threads so there's no wrong choice.

These are not iron-on transfers. I'll share several ways to easily transfer the designs. 

• Go dramatic and use black thread!!!
