I love the history you provide along with the quilt. I have the last quilt-top my great great gma worked on and recently found a picture of her. Also, I love all the links and book inspirations. I now have a list I want to add to my library:) Thank you for sharing. I just added you as a blog I follow on my own blog - mostly antiques and quilts. You are welcome to take a peek.<br />Smiles,<br />JoeyLea<br />http://thelocustblossom.blogspot.com/JoeyLeahttp://thelocustblossom.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289466493716180465.post-38619873992091829912012-07-23T08:22:30.065-05:002012-07-23T08:22:30.065-05:00Beth-there's a new line of William Morris prin...Beth-there's a new line of William Morris prints called The Morris Apprentice coming out in November.

However, your idea of a 36" block, maybe just the one, as a center block, is very tempting. It could be surrounded with something much easier. And then I'd have made one feathered star. That would be just enough.
