Default "Umbrella Girls"/"Sunbonnet Lassies" - historically speaking that is....

It seems there has been a lot of interest lately in "Umbrella Girls", etc.

While I was surfing the web I came upon this:



which is from a Project Gutenburg book named "Quilts - Their Story and How to Make Them - by Marie D. Webster" printed in 1916 located here: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/24682...-h/24682-h.htm and is in the public domain.

Disclaimer: The above is posted for reference only and is subject to the Project Gutenburg 'fair use' guidelines.

Lots of 'good stuff' there..... enjoy!
