Quilts from the Colonies by Margaret Mew

Quilts from the Colonies by Margaret Mew | Quiltmania | 20 Inspiring Quilt Projects Inspired by Early America

Take a journey through early American-inspired patchwork with Quilts from the Colonies by renowned Australian quiltmaker Margaret Mew. Published by Quiltmania, this beautifully photographed, softcover book offers 20 patterns that blend classic 18th and 19th century aesthetics with Margaret’s signature style of romantic, medallion-style quilts.

Each quilt is thoughtfully named after a place or motif tied to colonial history—from “Lexington Road” to “Liberty Oak,” “Sarah-Jane’s Scrapbag,” and “Henrietta.” The patterns range from appliqué to piecing and offer both large and small projects suited for intermediate to advanced quilters.

Included:

20 quilt projects with full instructions and templates
Gorgeous full-color photography throughout
Historical inspiration and narrative notes from the author
Quilts featured include: Culpeper, Midsomer Garances, Pomme d’Amour, Miss Hutchison’s Whimsy, and many more

A rare and elegant volume, this book is as much a treat for the textile historian as it is for the quiltmaker. A must-have for lovers of reproduction fabrics and early American design.
