BACK TO DOCUMENTATION PROJECTS

Maryland Quilt Documentation Projects

Thousands of images, stories and information about quilts and their makers have been saved by hundreds of public and private collections around the world, representing the work of thousands of community-based and independent scholars, digital humanists, and professionals in libraries, archives, and museums. The Quilt Index has made efforts to keep track of the projects and welcomes records from research and documentation projects, regardless of scope or size. One Maryland project, Kent County Documentation Project is in the Quilt Index. We have collected the following information about other Maryland efforts. 

If you have any corrections, updates, or want to join the Quilt Index, contact Beth Donaldson, donald20@msu.edu. 

Quilts made in Maryland have been documented by other projects. To see the quilts made in Maryland that are currently in the Quilt Index, click here.
