President Quilts

Ohio History
Faces of the White House
You may recognize several of the faces in this quilt. It gives a visual picture of the many lives spent working for political and social equality. Of course, the quilt celebrates the advent of the first African American President in the White House. However, it also gives a fuller picture of this culminating hope of the many famous and not-so-well-known people who worked and suffered in many different ways through history. The words "From Vision to Victory" stitched on the bottom epitomize this concept as well. I believe most, if not all, of this quilt is a preprinted background, embellished with detailed topstitching that is not readily apparent at first glance. But look closely at the sky above the White House and the stitching will pop out.
NBA Quilt
We also enjoyed this humorous but oh-so-true quilt. I think it speaks for itself. But be sure to take a second look at the outside border!
