No Kidding!! When I look at all the products we have today and what they had to "deal" with ~ its absolutely mind boggling! I have a book called People and Their Quilts..it tells alot of the history and has some wonderful pictures. AND there were an awful lot more MEN quilters than you'd think way back then. =) I LOVE LOVE LOVE the books that tell stories & share history of the day and the families along with pictures and directions. Its wonderful!
