Sears organized a special showing of contest quilts made in the theme of the Century of Progress for the Summer of 1934 when the Chicago World's Fair was extended for a second season. Sears photographed the quilts, but little is known about the quiltmakers except for Ida Stow's quilt that is at the center of the back wall.
