*Quilt. A patchwork marriage quilt, circa 1880, hand-stitched quilt, with herringbone detail, in various fabrics (some 1830s/40s) and shades, with a patchwork design of squares and triangles, incorporating appliqu‚d hearts and circles, some of the squares with pictorial religious quotations in sepia ink, upper and lower corners inscribed 'Head' and 'FOOT' respectively to indicate orientation of quilt, generally spotted and toned, minor perishing of some fabrics, 231 x 214cm (91 x 84ins) Quilts were often given as wedding gifts, or made by a betrothed young woman to take with her to her future husband's house. Such a bedcover was both a practical household item as well as an important keepsake of the girl's old life, particularly if her new home was distant from friends and family. Quilts were also made to celebrate other key life events, such as the birth of a child, as well as sometimes to remember the dead. This marriage quilt is a particularly attractive one, and it survives in very good condition. It includes the Lord's Prayer, Biblical quotations, and part of the refrain from Philip P. Bliss's 1870 hymn 'Hold the Fort': "Hold the fort for I am coming, Jesus signals still". Bliss's hymn was inspired by an incident in the American Civil War in which a message was relayed by flag semaphore to 'hold the fort' resulting in the ultimate retreat of the French. (1)
