Every quilt begins with a first stitch. For our nation, that
beginning was Delaware, The First State. Delaware is a place where life
feels closely knit, with only three counties— the fewest of any state.
In New Castle County, the northernmost, you’ll find a lively mix of
historic towns and modern energy: cobblestone streets where the past
still speaks, balanced with a bustling city center in Wilmington. In
Kent County, farmland stretches toward the horizon, and Dover stands as
both the capital and a keeper of tradition. To the south, affectionately
called The Slower Lower, Sussex County unfolds in wide open fields,
quiet waterways, and coastal towns where the pace turns leisurely and
community thrives. Together, these three counties form a state that may
be small in size but is expansive in spirit. In Delaware, the past and
present are carefully preserved. It’s a place that reminds us that small
beginnings can carry enormous meaning, much like the smallest scrap of
fabric can become the heart of a quilt. Includes artists: Claudia Banks,
