Many of the Amish and Mennonite quilts are not labelled, because of a tenet in their religions -- the group is more important than the individual.

Be sure to check about whether the Smithsonian quilts are on display before you make the trip to see them.

Also check out the Williamsburg Historical Society's quilt collection. Interesting.
