The horseshoe & rider's crop could indicate another interest of the Quilter's or maybe something else. It could be the brand of a KS ranch or during the Civil War Kentucky was a divided state. Many of the horse farms sent their racing throughbreds, studs and brood mares West to keep them out of the hands of both armies. Kansas was one of those destinations. Could be an old racing silks insignia.
