Coverlet – Pine Tree Border
c. 1937
Eva Wilson wove a striking geometric dreamscape into this 1937 coverlet, blending deep navy and teal blues with bold pops of orange. As a pioneering Canadian designer who worked closely with the famous Group of Seven, she often translated the rugged beauty of the northern landscape into functional textiles. The stepped motifs and heavy fringe at the bottom give it a cozy, cabin-ready feel that perfectly captures the design spirit of the era. It’s a beautiful reminder that art isn't just for hanging on walls—it’s meant to keep you warm, too!
