Federal Eagle Quilt Poem by Marilyn Lott

It is considered the finest quilt
West of the Mississippi it was stated
Along in the nineteen twenties
The Federal Eagle quilt was created

It was the most important quilt
To the Plains Indians or so it was said
Linen and cotton was used to make it
Wouldn’t you love to see it on a bed?

Delicate stitches sewn one by one
You know everything was done by hand
Pride and joy for the museum where it rests
Oh yes, this quilt is just grand

The Pioneers museum is the perfect place
For this quilt to be displayed
What a talented woman designed it
And we’re so glad this quilt was made

So if you get a chance, folks
I know that you’d like to see on display
The Federal Eagle Quilt
And the museum where it will stay!
