I have made this quilt. I'm not sure why you want the story with the quilt. The story of underground railroad and the quilt patterns has been largely questioned. If you do some research on this you will find a lot of information on how this is thought to be more myth than truth. That being said, it doesn't take away from the beauty of the quilt. I love sampler quilts and Eleanor Burns.
Jan, thanks for the great instructions. As always you have such great solutions.
