After discovering an extraordinary quilt from Connecticut in an online quilt history group and securing permission from its owner, a quilt group from Northwestern Washington began the journey of patterning The 1876 Centennial Quilt. Set in a unique Medallion-style arrangement, this quilt contains over 70 different patterns.

See this incredible exhibit at this year's Quilt Festival Chicago, March 28-30, 2019 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.

Ricky talks to the creators of The 1876 Centennial Quilt Project, Karen B. Alexander and Anne Dawson.

Thank you, Anne for leading such an ambititious project. I was proud to have you as a partner and teacher on this quilt project. Love you, Ricky for showcasing many projects that would otherwise not be seen. Quilters are a great community!
