For nearly three centuries, American women have made quilts to fill their family’s need for warm bedcovers, to express their creativity or to communicate a message. The quilts displayed in Greenfield Village are only the tip of our museum’s quilt iceberg. Join curator Jeanine Miller in a virtual stroll through textile storage to enjoy a look at quilts with stories to tell, artistry to share or a message to communicate. Savor a behind-the-scenes look at longtime favorites, as well as recently acquired quilts, and find out how they came into our collections.
