Sarah and Mary J. Pool album quilt, page 17, catalog entry 5, pages 307-8.

Illustrated in Deborah Harding and Laura Fisher, Home Sweet Home: The House in American Folk Art (New York: Rizzoli, 2001), p.53. Illustrated and discussed in Baltimore Album Quilt 2007 Calendar (Chadds Ford, PA: Jan Whitlock Textiles & Interiors, 2006), unpaginated, which states that: "This quilt has similar blocks to the DAR Quilt top. Two of the simplest blocks are signed in cross stitch by Sarah Pool (A4) and Mary J. Pool (E4). Mary's mother, Ruth was a seamstress. Mary and Sarah Pool were sisters-in-law as Mary's brother George was married to Sarah Burke Pool. The log cabin block represents the William Henry Harrison Presidential campaign of 1840. Martin Van Buren, Harrison's opponent, tried to disparage him by saying that he lived in a log cabin and drank hard cider. Harrison used the slur to his advantage and won the election. Actually, Harrison grew up in a very large estate, not unlike that shown in block C1."
