Padded Quilt by Eva Wilson, c. 1938

Think of this as a 1930s blueprint for an 1811 cozy masterpiece! Artist Eva Wilson meticulously drew this design for a 'Padded Quilt' originally created by Eliza Brigson in New York, capturing every swirling vine, floral urn, and striped bird in delicate detail. Created during the Great Depression to document American folk art, this sketch acts as a time capsule, preserving the intricate needlework of the Federal period before the original fabric could fade away.
