Wonderful flowers. Do you know who the designer was? I am looking forward to the others.

Love the quilts, and love the border on that first one - where did you find the pattern?

Eveline Foland, who was a designer for the Kansas City Star newspaper, created the pattern used for this quilt. When the patterns appeared one at a time in the Star, they were part of a twenty part series known as “Memory Bouquet.” The pattern was sold to the Detroit News, where, renamed “Flower Garden Quilt,” it appeared during 1931-1932. Foland’s work apparently appeared only in these two newspapers.

(My note, I have the Detroit papers and a 21st block was added for borders I chose not to use the border blocks and did my own thing so to speak)
