| Exceptional Friendship Quilt in which each block is signed. One block is inscribed "Nancy B. Kellogg's Album Quilt". Many of the surnames are Kellogg but others include: Adams; Boyd; Gibbons; Payne and Leggett. Several mention the relationship of the signer to Nancy Kellogg. Most of the blocks mention Franklin but others say Owego; Tioga County as well as Mr. Douglas Kellogg from Columbia County. All of these firmly place the quilt in New York State. Glorious selection of fabrics and a wonderful diamond border. Well quilted. Fabrics are in very good condition with only slight wear to some, but not all, of the reds. Circa 1850; measures 89" x 106". This is an important part of both quilt and New York State history. | |||||||||||||||
