I have been finishing three Mountain Mist quilts my Mom had nearly completed when she passed - in 1985! She had the applique all done and some tops together, but not the quilting. I completed the Fall Leaves one. She had appliqued but not assembled all the blocks. A couple of years ago I assembled the remaining blocks and enlarged it with borders to queen size and had it custom quilted for my guest room. The other two are apple blossom quilts she was making in 1972 but had never quilted. I am going to quilt them myself. Soon. 😅 They are treasures as my Mom wasn’t really a quilter - she sewed garments. I don’t sew garments but having these unfinished quilts caused me to become a quilter about ten years ago. I am finally finishing them.
The red and white quilt pattern is called Burgoyne Surrounded, a classic pattern. I’ve had a Burgoyne Surrounded on my list for years. Maybe next year? 😅 I had never heard about this, Michelle, this was fun! Loved the pictures!
I never made a Mountain Mist Quilt, but I saw an exhibit of Mountain Mist Quilt at the International Quilt Museum, and that's how I learned about them. The exhibit was lovely.
Thank you so much for the information about the history of the Mountain Mist quilts. It was so interesting. What a wonderful presentation! Thank you again!
This is great new information. I have used mountain mist batting before I switched to warm and natural batting. but didn't know this history or about patterns.
I still have a roll of Mountain Mist cotton batting. I'm a quilter. I recognize the Wedding Ring pattern on you wrapper. I never knew it was designed by Mountain Mist. I've seen so many old Wedding Rings. It was really popular.
This is exciting! I have a vintage Mountain Mist pattern unfolded and framed! I really want to make that red and white Burgoyne Surrounded quilt, so I bought the book with it in it, and 2 other LA Mountain Mist pattern books from eBay. Have a safe and happy 4th🤗
I would love the pattern for the New York Beauty! I have a partially completed quilt top in this pattern It is much simpler than most pictures I've seen. I would love to see a picture of this one The one I have is pink green and ivory Id really love to finish it!🎉
Fons & Porter magazine had an article and a moderized pattern based on an original mountain mist quilt in every issue for at one or two years. I'm not sure what issues they were. I've downsized my magazine collection. Im thinking it was in the 2010's.
Thanks Michelle for a wonderful presentation of Mountain Mist patterns and quilts can't pick favorite! Love them all!❤🐝🌻🐝🌻
