1893 Brookfield Album Quilt on Display

1893 Brookfield Album Quilt

 The Wakefield-Brookfield Historical Society is the recent recipient of an 1893 Brookfield Album Quilt, which has passed down through four generations of the Amasa Cate family. The large summer quilt, in the “Pineapple” pattern, has over 100 names of Brookfield residents from the period. The quilt will be on display on Tuesday, March 8th, Town Voting Day, in the Town Office building during voting hours of 1 to 6 pm for those who wish to see it. Also on display will be the original Town Pewter measures, bought by the town in the early 19th century and our recently professionally conserved Town Record Book #8
