ARROWHEADS
ANTIQUE GEOMETRIC QUILT DESIGNS *ARROWHEADS
< INDEX
Quilt Notes: this ARROWHEADS block was the design chosen by Nancy Cabot for her quilt column (really an old-fashioned quilt blog) in the Chicago Tribune on March 1, 1933. Slightly different than the pattern in Rhoda Oscher Goldberg's QUILTING AND PATCHWORK DICTIONARY, this one uses isosceles triangles in the arrow corners, producing a classic, geometric elegance, with an almost circular secondary tiling design (see below). See also a completely different pattern with the singular name, ARROWHEAD at this site. For more information on the ARROWHEADS quilt block, browse Related Sites.
