Resilient Blue is an exquisite, hand-quilted heirloom that thoughtfully integrates the rich history and symbolism of denim overalls made in the USA during the 1940s-1950s. This period was marked by World War II, the rise of American workwear, and advancements in textile manufacturing—all of which contributed to the enduring legacy of denim overalls as a practical, durable, and iconic garment.
Crafted from 4 pairs of authentic vintage denim overalls, this 75" x 76" bespoke creation pays homage to North Carolina's extensive textile heritage and the broader socioeconomic shifts in the United States during this pivotal era.
Machine-pieced block-by-block and hand-quilted stitch-by-stitch, the quilt exemplifies craftsmanship and attention to detail. It is beautifully bound with indigo-dyed woven gingham, recycled from a dress, and hand-quilted with Japanese sashiko thread—merging cultures, time periods, and the essence of resilience.
Resilient Blue arrives in a custom engraved wooden box, ready to serve as a functional quilt or a captivating work of art. Each thread and fiber carry with them the stories and significance of denim overalls in American history, while paying tribute to the strength and innovation that characterized the era.
