Description

Handmade quilt square which depicts a home and environs as part of the 15-panel Heritage Quilt of Cedar Mill.

It is son James' half of the original Samuel Walters home which was divided in two sections. Son Samuels' half stands at the corner of 107th and Leahy Road. The original house was built in 1885 and was located in the area of Walters Lane.
