Det internationale quiltmuseum i Lincoln, Nebraska, har to quilts af den, måske fra Pennsylvania, som museet daterer til 1790–1810 og 1800–1820: i den ene danner blokkene skrå kæder, i den anden står de på spidsen. Barbara Brackman fandt dog ingen firefelts-quilt med en indskrevet dato før 1830, og hun mener, at [[nine-patch|nifeltsen]] var langt mere populær før da.","Colonial Williamsburg skriver også om en quilt fra 1835–1850, at det ofte var den første blok, en ung quilter syede, og Marie Webster citerer i 1915 Bessie Daingerfield om pigerne i Appalacherne, der stolt viser deres første firefelts eller nifelts frem. Hverken Ladies' Art Company eller Webster har en ren firefelts i deres lister; ifølge Brackman kaldte bladet Farm Journal den Squares Upon Squares.","Carrie Halls Four-Patch på Spencer Museum of Art er to små firefelts og to hele kvadrater, den blok, Brackman i dag ville kalde [[double-four-patch|dobbelt firefelts]]. Museet i Lincoln har en dobbelt firefelts fra 1830–1850 og en amish-quilt fra 1913 af Lydia Schmucker fra Indiana.","En charm quilt var i 1870'erne en quilt, hvor ingen to stykker stof var ens. Brackman har fundet navnet i aviser fra 1873, 1875 og 1879, flere af dem om quilts med over tusind stykker, og skriver, at kun få nåede målet; museet i Lincoln har en sekskantquilt fra 1887 med kun en håndfuld gentagelser. Navnet [[charm-patch|charm-firefelt]] kommer fra de forskårne pakker med 5\" kvadrater, som stofproducenterne i dag kalder charm packs. Hvornår de kom, har vi ikke fundet en sikker kilde til.",[33,34],"Firefeltsen syes af fire kvadrater, eller hurtigere af to strimler syet sammen, skåret over og vendt. Sat side om side danner de mørke kvadrater skrå kæder over quilten, som i den ældste quilt i Lincoln; på spidsen bliver de til ruder.","Den er byggesten i større blokke som [[jacobs-ladder]] og står godt på skift med [[snowball]] eller ensfarvede kvadrater.",{"lead":36,"period":37,"history":38,"use":43},"Four squares, dark and light diagonally opposite: the simplest block of all.","USA, from about 1800",[39,40,41,42],"Colonial Williamsburg calls the four patch the simplest of all pieced patterns. The International Quilt Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska, has two quilts of it, possibly from Pennsylvania, which the museum dates to 1790–1810 and 1800–1820: in one the blocks form diagonal chains, in the other they stand on point. Barbara Brackman, however, found no four patch quilt with an inscribed date before 1830, and she thinks the [[nine-patch|nine patch]] was far more popular before then.","Colonial Williamsburg also writes of a quilt from 1835–1850 that it was often the first block a young quilter made, and in 1915 Marie Webster quotes Bessie Daingerfield on the girls of Appalachia proudly showing their first four patch or nine patch. Neither the Ladies' Art Company nor Webster has a plain four patch in their lists; according to Brackman the paper Farm Journal called it Squares Upon Squares.","Carrie Hall's Four-Patch at the Spencer Museum of Art is two small four patches and two plain squares, the block Brackman would call a [[double-four-patch|double four patch]] today. The museum in Lincoln has a double four patch from 1830–1850 and an Amish quilt from 1913 by Lydia Schmucker of Indiana.","In the 1870s a charm quilt was a quilt in which no two pieces of fabric were alike. Brackman has found the name in newspapers of 1873, 1875 and 1879, several of them for quilts of over a thousand pieces, and writes that few reached the goal; the museum in Lincoln has a hexagon quilt from 1887 with only a handful of repeats. The name [[charm-patch|charm four patch]] comes from the precut packs of 5\" squares that fabric makers call charm packs today. We have found no sure source for when they appeared.",[44,45],"The four patch is sewn from four squares, or faster from two strips sewn together, cut across and turned. Set side by side the dark squares make diagonal chains across the quilt, as in the oldest quilt in Lincoln; on point they become diamonds.","It is a building block of larger blocks such as [[jacobs-ladder]] and looks good alternating with [[snowball]] or plain squares.",1794245545766]
