Fan Crazy Quilt by Sarah Kirby, circa 1900
- Fan Variation Quilt by Susan McCord, circa 1900 - This quilt is a variation of a "crazy" quilt design called fans. Most quilters placed a fan in just one corner of a block. Susan McCord sewed fans of varying sizes in each corner. Then she joined the blocks together to form "wheels" that dazzle with a sense of motion and energy -- a stunning example of this Indiana farmwife's extraordinary design sense.
