Paintings and Quilts 2 -- "A Few of My Favorite Things"
Looked high and low for more quilts in paintings and did find some, particularly among Norman Rockwell's paintings, pointing to the quilt's place in Americana.

Lovely! I think "Tucking into Bed" is my favorite Rockwell painting.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you enjoyed this. Rockwell seemed to know that quilts were part of our national cultural fabric.
