Did you know the 30th President of the US Quilted?
MQ Adventurer, Rosa Aparicio
Did you know our 30th President Quilted? Calvin Coolidge was just a boy, I think maybe 10 or younger. The boys back then had to learn because it helped them with the horses equipment. Mr. Coolidge's Mother had tuberculosis and so as a young boy, he would sit
with his Mother and they would quilt. They made one Quilt together and it now hangs in a museum. As added information: For the 4th of July celebration in 2005, Fiber Arts in Vermont organized a raffle to benefit the Calvin Coolidge State Historic Site for the care and preservation of its textile collection. Details about the event and Coolidge's quilt can be found at: Calvin Coolidge Quilt Reproduction Auctioned in 2005
