About Antique Quilts

Quiltmaking has been a popular pastime in the U.S. from the 1700s to the present, and today quilts are highly collectible as works of folk art with historical significance. Antique quilts vary widely in design and materials, with important styles including central motif, log cabin, album, circular, star, patriotic, thematic, representational, and crazy quilts, among others.
