Turkey Track Patterned Quilt
From the Collections of Henry Ford Museum & Greenfield Village
Many quilts patterns have different names, or names which changed over time. This pattern had been known as "Wandering Foot." However, legend had it that if a young man slept under a Wandering Foot quilt, they would never settle down and have a family. Thus, it began to be called Turkey Tracks, instead.
