Love Love Love anything that has anything to do with history. If you need to add a few quatations about quilting there is an adorable little (2" x 3") book that I found years ago titled Quilting Quotations Celebrating an American Legacy.. It has wonderful remembrances from quilters over the years. One of my favorites reads, "You can give the same kind o' pieces to two persons, and one'll make a "nine-patch" and one'll make a "wild-goose-chase," and there'll be two quilts made of o' the same kind o' pieces, and jest as different as they can be. And that is jest the way with living'. The Lord sends us the pieces, but we can cut 'em out and put 'em together pretty much to suit ourselves, and there's a heap more in the cuttin' out and the sewin' than there is in the caliker (calico).
