Showcasing the V and A’s collection of patchwork and quilted covers from over 300 years of British quilting history, the images in the V and A Museum Desk Diary 2011 range from the spectacular bed hangings and silk coverlets of the 18th century to the creative reinvention of the quilt by contemporary artists. Also included are unseen images of details, reverse sides, plus sewing equipment such as needles, etuis, and other related ephemera. It‘s a feast of color, pattern and detail that brightens the day of anyone interested in art or needlework.
