If I recall correctly, "Dances with Wolves" had a quilt that was historically inaccurate as it was a Depression era quilt. Kinda jumped out at me.

If any one watched the first season of True Blood, Sookies Grandmother had several quilts in her cozy cottage.

Can't recall any movies. But did see a fan quilt in a detergent commercial.

Oh, I guess I had better say on television and not just movies. There have been a lot of them, including the fan quilt on the truck in "The Beverly Hillbillies".

Movie: "Thieves Like Us". Old Movie, shelly duvall says it was made by her grandmother, then Keith Caradine dies and they carry his body out in the old quilt getting it all bloody. I was more worried about the quilt than the character. LOL

The movie Lincoln. The scene where Tommy Lee Jones is in bed with his wife (who was a slave) and he hands her the emancipation proclamation to read.
