Chintz Medallion; The Virginia Quilt Museum

11/10/2013

4 Comments

 
Some time ago Quilting Treasures released a collection of fabrics copied from a quilt at the Virginia Quilt Museum (VQM). The quilt is known as “Chintz Medallion”. It’s a beautiful quilt made of a variety of Brown and Turkey Red Chintz Fabrics. I was asked to write the directions for quilters to use to accurately recreate this beautiful. 
 
Unfortunately it was brought to my attention that there were some issues with the construction and cutting directions. The major issue is the corner of the Blue Garland border. After reviewing the directions that were released from Quilting Treasures I found that an incorrect image of the quilt was given to the person who edits directions. So they changed the directions to make the picture.  It was an image created during the process of trying to recreate the quilt with my Electric Quilt software. It was never meant to go into the directions.  

I have made the corrections and gave them to the wonderful quilter who brought it to my attention. She has completed the quilt top and tells me that the corrections are good. Please contact me if you have bought this kit or obtained the pattern and would like the changes sent to you.  

I’m sorry for any inconvenience and hope that your quilt turns out beautifully. I’m posting images of the quilt top made by the Quilter who contacted me. It looks really awesome! 
 
Goodbye for now,
Janice

I believe that I contacted you for the corrections some time ago. You gave them to me and I have misplaced the print out. Please be so kind to send again.
Thanks so much!
Mattie

Came to your blog after seeing the quilt you designed last year for McCalls. Have been collecting medallion quilt designs for potential use with a large applique block I have. I was able to download the quilt instructions that are archived on the QT site. Do you know if this is a corrected version? If not, is it still possible to get the corrections? Thanks in advance for any help and I am enjoying reading about your design process here on your site.
