20th Century American Amish Bars Crib Quilt in Purple, Blue, Green. Brown
Located in Barrington, IL
20th century hand-stitched and quilted American Amish Crib Quilt in a "Bars” pattern from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The quilt has a very fine hand stitching with primary colors of purple, medium blue, green, and black. The quilt has a brown back and a hanging pocket for display on the wall. The Amish community in Pennsylvania hand craft the quilts for their own use using the material that they had on hand. It is a beautiful example of an upcycling and reuse of material that has utilitarian functions but is also a representation of the art and culture that is woven into it.

Early 20th Century African American Southern Hand Stitched Quilt
Located in Barrington, IL
African American Southern hand stitched quilt from the early 1900s. It is astonishingly similar to the 19th century quilts made by African Americans in Gee's Bend, Alabama in the Southern Region of the United States and typically have a geometric straight line design rather than the floral patterns from the New England area of the US. The African American Southern quilts from the 19th and the early 20th century have become very collectable and extremely desirable.
