Quilt History Signature quilts were a 19th century fad. The trend began in the 1840's, continued in the 50's, faded then resurfaced in the 1890's. It started on the eastern seaboard, between New Jersey and Maryland, with popularity in Baltimore and Philadelphia, then north to New England and west to Ohio before going south to Virginia and the Carolinas. The earliest known quilts are from 1840's. Most of the early signature quilts were of the album or sampler variety. The single pattern version was seen about ten years later. These quilts were often inscribed with more than just signatures. Poems, bible verses and personal notes were all popular. |
