What comes to mind when you hear the word
Americana? Perhaps it’s an object, like a vintage
belt buckle, or maybe it’s an idealized scene of
a cowboy gazing across a vast expanse of land.
Defined by a sense of American patriotism and
nostalgia, our Americana collection captures
the essence of pride in America’s heritage with
embroidery and thread. Featuring hundreds of
quilt blocks and unique patterns, these designs
reminisce about the uncharted American
West and the pioneering spirit that lead to our
country’s expansion.
Inspired by a Stephen Wilson Studio art series,
the beauty of this collection is the
ability to form your own keepsakes that
capture the American spirit. The quilt blocks
included in Americana range in size from a
minute 2” x 2” block up to a commanding
8” x 12” and sizes in between, so you will
learn how to easily make intricate quilts with
our combination square method. With a little
advance planning and the guides included,
the Americana designs allow you to create
your own patriotic projects that will stand the
test of time and proudly show the trailblazing
spirit of our country. Anita Goodesign founder

show at the New Gallery of Modern Art in
