Varina Davis's butterfly quilt
The former First Lady of the Confederacy made this symbolic memorial quilt in the years following the Civil War. Silk, velvet, and chenille were used to create the elaborate foliage, while satin was used to make the flags and shield. The quilt was donated to the MOC by the Davis' granddaughter in 1925 |
