Sterling Silver Album Block Quilt Jewelry

In early America, the very real possibility existed that those who migrated West might never return to see friends and family again.

Album Block quilts were frequently given when one of the group or family moved away or married.   Blocks were contributed by those close to the recipient investing them with very emotional, personal feelings.  Each block was embroidered with a name, and thus served as a visual reminder of past associations.

Our Album Block is 1/2" square with yellow and black enamel. The earrings come with secure, comfortable sterling silver leverbacks (see photo) or sterling silver french wires which are more economical but equally nice.

An 18" sterling silver chain is included with the necklace.  All parts are made in the USA, what a perfect quilter's gift!
