The Bouvier family quilt was a quilt that belonged to the Bouvier family for six generations.

History

Marge revealed to Lisa the existence of a family quilt, and she wanted Lisa to make her contribution to the quilt. Later, Santa's Little Helper wandered through the house and destroyed the quilt. Marge and Lisa brought Homer upstairs to see the quilt, but it was ruined.

After that, Lisa began a new family quilt, its first patch depicting the destruction of the old one.

• A woman hunting a bison from horseback - the Oregon Trail.
• A soldier getting shot - Spanish Civil War.
