Quilt from Preble house
Great Cranberry Island Historical Society
Description:
Quilt. Known as a "crazy quilt", this quilt was recovered from the Preble house on GCI and is believed to be over 150 years old. Quilt is bordered in velvet with silk and other types of multi-colored, geometric and free-form fabric pieces and a wide variety of fancy stitching; reverse is green silk. The quilt has three sets of fancy-script initials in different areas interpreted as: "A" ; "J" or "T"; and "JSM". (See also quilt 2014.270.2007 from same location and donor.) (Note: Lynne Birlem (donor 343) has a very similar framed crazy quilt at her home that is from her great grandmother Hamor's house on GCI.) [show more]
