Comment on Cross Stitch Mother Goose — Whitman, 1932 by Faith

Hi Martha! I have recently found your blog and have really enjoyed viewing all of your hard work. Thank you for sharing. I have needed something to get me going on cross-stitch and I think after viewing these it is now time and this is it. I am also very glad to find someone else who finds hand quilting to be an enjoyable and worthwhile pass-time. After reading your blog I feel like I have a new found confidence. Thank you so much for that!

Wow! I’ve never seen anything like this before, either. It’s really wonderful, and it makes me want to cross-stitch, too. I love the ‘rain, rain’ picture.

I found you blog a while ago, but didn’t leave a comment. I haven’t done any cross stitching for awhile but you have just inspired me to.

Comment on Letha’s Electric Fan Quilt – WIP by Letha A. Gunter

My name is Letha. It is a Danish Celtic name…and came to America
with the immigrations at Ellis Island. My relatives settled in Illinois and then moved on to good farming land in Kansas. The women were all quilters and hearty farm laborers.
Interesting that the pattern is created from a functional item in 1938.
I wanted to make this pattern because it had my name in it. unusual to see my name anywhere.
I acquired some small wedge-shaped prints and altered them to make this pattern. I had to draft a new pattern. Interesting that the middle is a hole. never have I ever seen that before. My block turned out ot be a 13 1/2 inch block but I think my little wedge-shaped prints are a tad bit bigger.
The lady mentioned the Stitch and Sew Quiting magazine 1989. I have looked for it. can anyone lead me to the purchase of one?

My colonoscopy is scheduled for noon tomorrow so have to drink 2 litres tonight and 2 more in the morning. Definitely not looking forward to it and will try the dryer sheet tip for sure.
