I just posted a thumbnail version of this quilt on my new Lectures page to illustrate my “Quilts in U.S. History” lecture. It was based on on a quilt made in New Jersey in 1920, and I machine pieced and hand quilted it for Fosterfields Living Historical Farm in Morristown, NJ. (The photo was shot there too.) I made the quilt in 2006 – 2007, using scraps of homespun fabric that park staff used to make costumes for interpreters to wear on-site.
