Indiana’s Quilting Heritage: A Visual Survey
A Visual Feast! Mary Jane will tell the story of quilting’s history in Indiana from the 1820s to the early 1900s using images of 88 quilts, many from the Indiana State Museum’s collection. Find out what Indiana’s earliest documented quilts looked like, how Indiana Amish quilts differ from those from Pennsylvania, and how Indiana designers revolutionized quilting at the turn of the 20th century.
