The New Yankee Workshop Season 7 Episode 12

Quilt Racks

Norm returns to Old Sturbridge Village in Sturbridge, Massachusetts to research the colonial custom of using blanket frames or racks. What results are stylish displays for prized quilts as Norm reinterprets these pieces in both Victorian and Shaker styles. While the mahogany Victorian rack features a curved top and turned legs, its simple pine counterpart boasts flat braces and a trestle foot.
