Turkeys Advised to 'Make Tracks' !

At least one turkey I know of did NOT get away - but we're talkin' quilts here and this seems like a good time to take a look at a particularly graphic classic quilt pattern called Turkey Tracks.

There are many variations as is true for most patterns!


Made by  Agusta Schelling, Nebraska c. 1920

From the collection of the International  Quilt Study Center

Indiana c. 1850

 

In memory of Jan 

One of my very favorite more contemporary versions was made by my friend, Jan.

She had a great sense of humor and since it took her so long to finish it she named it "The Slowest Turkey in Town.

I have much to be thankful for this year; a special note of gratitude to Sharon.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!
