I think I view Martha's quilt as modern looking because of the very graphic nature of the parts. <br />The use of the striped fabric and the simple geometric forms used for the applique. Most applique from that time was representational (ie. a bird, leaf,vine, flower etc.). Martha's are simple circles and ovals.

But I know - modern quilters will contradcit me very vehemntly ... <br />ohh but I completely left the topic of your quilt - I will have to study the quilting more closely, that is the thing I have the least experience with ..
