I have collected a number of antique quilts from Southeastern Pennyslvania and particularly signature quilts. A several of those are Quaker (shared the other day) and others are Pennsylvania German and are often Rolling Stones. Here are two of my favorites. Come see them in the cloth in Kansas City June 7-9
