Description:
Historical Note: Mrs. George G. Wickline, Austin, Texas, presented this "wedding ring" quilt for the Governor E.M. Pease bed in the Pease room. The quilt was the gift of Mrs. Wickline's daughter, Joyce Wickline Darling. Mrs. Wickline had heard that a quilt was needed for the naked bed in the Pease Room. She then asked her daughter if she would give the state a quilt that was made by her great-grandmother, Mrs. Julia Ann Summers Wickline in 1842 or before.
