Unknown maker, possibly Ohio, 1850-1875
Needlework, 1850-1870
All of the above are from the DAR special 250th exhibit. I'm so glad we were able to see some of these beauties!
When we were taking a capital tour we had a "shelter in place" drill. The exhibit room we were sheltering in held artifact from the 1876-1976 centennial. The items below are from that exhibit.
What a fun piece of folk art!
Love this poster. It literally embraces the unity I wish we had now.
I shared this dress in my Facebook group. If you'd like to join, find it HERE.
The photos below were taken at the Smithsonian American History Museum.
I hope you enjoyed this! I sure loved seeing these in person. I've got a new little project in the works and will share than next week.
Have a lovely weekend.
