Wow, what an awesome keepsake! It's just wonderful!
We have one in our museum collection that is very similar: http://www.bentoncountymuseum.org/exhibitions/coverlets/#babyeaglemotif. Sarah Jacob Schliffe made our double-weave coverlet in 1846. Her photo, and another coverlet from her family, is on our web site.
