Quilt Patterns

Our March 2021 window display in the Hannan House featured historic quilts, with a variety of patterns, some originating more than 200 years ago. Visitors to the Park at Bothell Landing enjoyed this look into our heritage of crafts, still practiced by many today.

The Bothell Historical Museum’s hand-sewn and early Singer machine-sewn Quilt Collection includes patterns dated between the 1700s and the 1900s. The display was curated and staged by Bothell Historical Society members Carol Haynes, Mary Anne Gibbons, Margaret Carroll, and Pat Pierce.
