Each block’s center has a family genealogy with parents, date of marriage and their children with all applicable dates, ranging from 1768 to 1850. The T-shape is typical of New England, who preferred to cut out the corners so they folded more easily around/over the posts of four-poster beds. This one’s maker cleverly cut around the arc of the corner circles to make her cut-outs large enough without ruining the design. The family concerned was in Massachusetts and Vermont. We do not have a large number of New England quilts, so acquiring a few more is desirable. This one is interesting to our collection for obvious reasons.
