From the Texas Quilt Museum:
“Princess Feathers and Feathered Stars is partially sponsored by the Lucille Gaebler Klein Fund, and will feature 45 incredible quilts drawn from the International Quilt Festival Collection, as well as the private collections from Museum co-founders Karey Bresenhan and Nancy O’Bryant in Galleries I and II.
“Quilters have long associated feathers with the 19th and 20th centuries,” says Museum Curator Vicki Mangum.
“The earliest use of the Princess Feather design was found on a quilt dated 1818. Feathered Star quilts began appearing in the 19th century as well. Both are intricately pieced and time consuming for the busy quilter. Modern sewing methods and machines, make quick work of these two cherished designs.”
