Our Nation's Presidents Remembered in Quilts.
Throughout our country's history, quiltmakers have honored our nation's Presidents in their quiltmaking. During this election season, I hope you enjoy these quilts and blocks depicting the most important leaders of our country. This is how quilt history has chosen to remembered our Presidents.
