| The
American Heritage Collection is inspired by
pieces in Colonial Williamsburg's Abby Aldrich
Rockefeller Folk Art Museum, now home to more
than 4,000 objects. Designed from chests,
paintings, statues, and even musical
instruments, each pattern captures the best of
Americana in a collection that re-creates the
patina feel of well-used, well-loved items from
our past.
With beautiful designs,
enticing colors, and timeless appeal, these
fabrics will help quilters create their own
piece of history. |

Inspired
by the collections of Colonial Williamsburg
Exclusively by Windham Fabrics |
Since colonial times, American
folk artists have recorded aspects of everyday life,
making novel and effective use of the materials at hand.
Bold colors, simplified shapes, and imaginative surface
patterns characterize the work of these untutored
artisans, whose creations include paintings, carvings,
toys, and needlework. During the late 1920s, Abby
Aldrich Rockefeller, wife of the Williamsburg
restoration benefactor, pioneered in collecting hundreds
of folk art pieces-in a time when this artistic genre
was virtually ignored. |
