A darling little boy, unhappy about having to stay still long enough for his picture, sits on a quilt draped chair on his family's porch. The quilt is a utility quilt consisting of multiple fabric scraps, many in plaids, polka dots, checks and stripes, which were so prevalent in quilts from the 1900s through the 1920s.
