EDITORS COMMENTS
Evelyn Bailey's 'Patchwork Pattern' (c. 1936) is a captivating work of art that showcases the beauty and intricacy of traditional American patchwork and needlework. This stunning watercolour, graphite, and gouache on paper creation by Bailey transports us back to the 1930s and 1940s, a time when such crafts held a significant place in American culture. The vibrant patchwork design, featuring a harmonious blend of blue and pink hues, is reminiscent of quilts that were once a cherished part of American heritage. The delicate rose motifs interspersed throughout the design add a touch of elegance and refinement. Bailey's skillful use of colour and pattern is evident in the way each element seamlessly blends into the next, creating a cohesive and visually appealing composition. This artwork, now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the enduring appeal of American crafts and the artistry of Evelyn Bailey. The piece invites us to reflect on the rich history of American decorative arts and the role they played in shaping the country's cultural identity. Whether admired for its historical significance or simply for its aesthetic appeal, 'Patchwork Pattern' continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
