The lady standing in front of the wonderful string quilt is my great-grandmother Dora Petty-Wood. I wish I knew where the quilt was, probably went to some other branch of the family or perhaps burnt up in one bad fire the family had later. Most of all, I wish I could talk to her & know what her life was like. Everyone said she was a wonderful & kind Christian lady, though very hard-working & very quiet (as my grandfather was also). I hope to meet her in heaven one day. I'm glad to see it posted here. I don't even have the book yet, as Janet forgot to tell me about it until a few days ago, but I am going to order two today for myself & my father (her grandson). Did the photo of the Epworth League benefit for the Chandler tornado showing the quilts & children make it in there? I found that one online for her. I wish the fabulous picture of my other great-grandparents with a quilt had made it in the book, but she only used ones if the originals were possessed (due to rights) & mine was just a very old copy.

I was surprised to learn that she was a quilter too, and her family had used a lovely Grandmother's Flower Garden , that she had made, to cover her remains. It was beautiful and we would have had a lot more to chat about had I known she was a quilter. I did take a photo of the beautiful quilt.Sandra Coleman Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13858516393335601050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-6299800091608850232013-01-21T22:35:51.163-05:002013-01-21T22:35:51.163-05:00Piffle Here.

I just couldn't stand it after Sandy Hook. So, I donated it to the Goodwill.

Can't wait to get it. I have a HUGE book collection. I wonder what will become of it when I die? I have often tried to donate to my library here.... they say it has to go up to the main distribution center for it to be determined if there is a need, yada yada yada... HA!~ There IS a need, as there are very few quilting books on the shelves here. Thus, my wanting to donate to them. Frustrates me to no end. I digress...<br />Thank you for showing us this book and please keep them coming!~ <br />Sandra Hendersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369992819437905498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-18313334135878894132013-01-21T10:33:04.117-05:002013-01-21T10:33:04.117-05:00I NEED this book.
