Garret Room by Andrew Wyeth, 1962. As Wyeth describes it in his autobiography, "I made this drybrush of Tom Clark in his attic room. I came across him--I just prowl around people's houses, when they let me, of course, at all times of the day and night--stretched out on that amazing bedspread that his grandmother had made."

The Cliff Dwellers by George Bellows, 1913. Can you find the quilt in this painting?

If you know of other paintings with quilts, I'd love to hear.
