Sally's Stitches by Betsy Chutchian for Moda - Shop

For designer Betsy Chutchian, discovering a fabulous sampler quilt from the 1840–1860s was an unbelievably exciting moment. She was immediately captivated by its oversized and quirky pieced and appliquéd blocks, crafted in terrific fabrics and remarkably well-preserved—truly an extraordinary find.

Through careful study, Betsy and her team have reproduced a number of prints from this sampler, as well as from another quilt in her collection from the same era. These reproductions are a tribute to the original makers and the vibrant colors that defined that period.
