Regency Applique, in a redwork version.
Quilt pattern inspired by Jane Austen's
Pride and Prejudice
designed by Nancy Bekofske.
Lydia Bennet and two soldiers
The first version in applique
was inspired by
Marian Whiteside Cheever's
Story Book Quilts. Nancy decided to illustrate her favorite book.
Regency Applique
Little Women quilt by Marion Cheever Whiteside
for Ladies' Home Journal, 1949
Nancy sells the pattern for her Regency Applique quilt,
in applique or embroidery.
Mr. Collins introducing himself to Mr. Darcy

Nancy's been making the Austen Family Album blocks too.
Love her fussy cut floral that runs as a theme.
