This block, from the Reconciliation Quilt, shows a freed slave woman smoking a pipe, doing the wash in a barrel while a man peddles his wares with dogs and a chicken at their feet. The original Reconciliation Quilt, by Lucinda Ward Honstain, dated Nov. 18th 1867 is one of the most extraordinary pictorial album quilts known. It depicts events and life of the Union after the Civil War. Photo: International Quilt Museum; Accession Number: 2001.11.0001
