Sarah Flickwir Quilt |
I stumbled on this quilt at the website of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. It's a friendship album quilt signed by the family and friends of Sarah Flickwir. It comes from Philadelphia and was made about 1840 - 1846.
Please take the time to visit the website and read about 19th century friendship quilts - it's quite a good summary of signature album quilts.
