Preserving quilt history is a goal of The Alliance for American Quilts. I have favorite quilts from every recorded period of quilt history, some seen only in books and many of these images have inspired my own quilts. In 2004 the Alliance raffle quilt featured blocks inspired by hand applique Baltimore Album quilts of the 1850's. One block offered on the website for members to download. I stitched this quilt using 1930 style reproduction fabrics and put my birds and berries all under one roof.
