Arrowhead Medallion

"Arrowhead Medallion"

1981-1982
83" x 83"

Design: Original design by Kathy Morton

Fabrics: Cotton

Techniques: Machine pieced, hand quilted

Makers: Piecing and quilting by members of Minnesota Quilters, Inc. Project was coordinated by Nancy Schell.

Comments: Perhaps the designer was thinking of Minnesota as the “Arrowhead” state when she designed this quilt. The central medallion is composed of four “Stepping Stones” blocks (Brackman # 1983b) that are very similar to “Arrowheads” blocks (Brackman # 1986). The medallion is surrounded by a sawtooth border. The next border is composed of twenty pieced “Queen Charlotte’s Crown blocks (Brackman # 4134). The outer border is a 5.5 inch solid strip quilted with cables, with dogtooth edging on both sides.
