Quilters, ga-ga over the election of Obama and the Inauguration festivities, have been sewing up a storm for several months to commemmorate the occasion, as I describe in Obama Quilts and Quilters – All the Rage. This has drawn attention to quilts at Inauguration time and has me researching presidential and patriotic quilts of the past.
Among these are:
- Clay’s Choice
- Courthouse Steps
- Lincoln’s Platform
- Whig Rose
- White House Steps
- Little Giant
- Alexander Hamilton’s Quilt
- Democrat Rose
- Whig’s Defeat
- Washington’s Quilt
- Mrs. Cleveland’s Choice
- Old Tippecanoe
- Potomac Pride
- Martha Washington’s Wreath
- Democrat Donkey
Do you know names of any modern day politicians, presidents, or patriotic events to add to this list?
