Summary	This article describes a display at theℓArt Institute of Chicago featuring theℓquilt work of Emma B. Hodge. It points out the quilt's artistic and historical value. To the former, the quality of the hand-done stitches was notable, as the fineness of the work was determined by how many spools of thread were needed to complete the quilt. To the latter, the names of the patterns referred to domestic, national and political interests of the quilter's day, allowing insight into the lives of Hodge and her family.
