Vintage Stitching Treasury

Unmistakably art deco, the top pillow updated 1930s

Colonial style with background tinting. The fruit basket

tablecloth corner in the middle shows how pattern

companies would often update popular patterns to

keep them fresh, leading to somewhat eclectic results.

The bluebird pattern at the bottom dates back to the

1940s, though its style and subject reach back to the

turn of the century. (Patterns on pages 144, 56, and 63.)

The rectangular pillow shown here combines

the silhouette trend of the 1920s and 1930s

with the pastel palette of boudoir pillows.

The colors of the square pillow make a big

impact when contained within the black

outlining that was classic in the 1920s.
