Thanks, Eric. There's a small picture of the whole quilt here. If you'd like, I'll send you a pdf of the book, with lots of pictures.

I would love of PDF copy of Phoebe's quilt. I am a descendant of Didymus Johnson. He is my 2nd great grandfather. I have been trying to find out more about him. I was in Haddam a year ago. I wish I could have seen the quilt in April. Will it be shown at another time.

And in some sort of recursive dream, Phoebe's Quilt in the News is also in the news, in the NEHGS newsletter, the Weekly Genealogist. :) Welcome, anyone who comes here from there!

I would love a PDF copy of the book. I am a descendant of Phoebe (Scovil) Cole b: 1736 and married Marcus Cole b: 1734. Phoebe and Marcus lived in East Hampton [Chatham] CT.

Phoebe is a descendant of Arthur Scovill b:1635 in England and d: 1706 in Middletown CT.

Bailey, Johnson, Harris, Brainerd, and Smith are among the family names.

It's wonderful to hear about a family heirloom that was kept in the family all those years. Thank you for sharing.

About five years ago, I did a genealogical search of a signature quilt done in 1849/50 in the collection of the Falmouth Historical Society (MA).

The women were related to at least one other signer and made this quilt for a departing reverend. The quilt is included in the Massachusetts Quilt Documentation book. It was fun doing.
