- Turkey Tracks Quilt by Susan McCord, circa 1880 - Susan McCord's unique vine design meanders along the border on one side of this Turkey Tracks pattern quilt. This quilt was probably made with a specific bed in mind -- a bed with one long side against a wall. The border's background fabric doesn't quite match the rest of the quilt. Did McCord "recycle" a previously made, and now worn, quilt's border?
