Description
The Empress Wu quilt was designed with the historic Chinese Empress Wu in mind. She was the only woman to rule China in her own name, during a time of strong political and cultural growth.
Art and performance were part of everyday court life, and traditional fan dances had already been woven into Chinese culture for centuries. The layered fan blocks in this quilt are a nod to that long tradition.
Finishing at 97”, this intermediate pattern includes clear cutting and assembly instructions to help you build each fan and assemble the quilt center and borders with confidence.
Finished Size: 97” x 97”
Skill Level: Intermediate
Introduction: Fans symbolize wealth, authority, happiness, and unity in Asian culture. Use three different fans to make this sumptuous quilt.
