The swastika is an ancient symbol of good luck and was converted by early pioneers into a quilt pattern. Other names for this pattern are Rolling Cross, Broken Cross and Flyfoot. It was done by the owners grandmother around 1890. It was made in East Salem, PA. This quilt is in very good condition. The swastika symbol became the hated symbol of Hitler’s Nazi Germany. From the time of the Second World War...this quilt has been tucked away in a cedar chest.
Another surprise...
