Civil Warriors
Club—4th Wednesday—6 PM
Purchase any of the four Civil War block of the month kits and you are a
member of the “Civil Warriors” meeting the fourth Wednesday evening of
the month at 6 PM. Free fat quarters for completed blocks and a
chance to win a free backing for a quilt. Bonnie showcases civil
war projects and guides you through the journey of making your very own
Civil War Commemorative quilt.
The Civil War quilts feature reproduction fabrics identical to pattern
requirements as well as stories surrounding the Civil War ear.
The Tribute, 2010, features stories of important battles of the
conflict.
The Chronicles, 2011 features narratives of twelve women who encountered
their own struggles on the home front while their husbands were away.
Civil War Journal, 2012, focuses on a different aspect of the war , the
children of the 1860’s. Some joined the army and fought as soldiers.
Others took on adult roles at home, farming the land or helping the
family survive while men were away at battle.
Come join the group, learn about the era and make a memorable quilt as
you go. |

Farmer’s Wife Club—4th
Wednesday—7 PM
The Farmer’s Wife Sampler Quilt
(Letters from the 1920’s farm wives and the 111 blocks they
inspired)
In 1922, The Farmer’s Wife magazine posed this question to their
readers: “If you had a daughter of marriageable age, would you, in
light of your own experience, have her marry a farmer?” The
magazine at that time had 750,000 subscribers and received over
7,000 letters. The 42 best answers to this question are included
in this book, along with the traditional quilt blocks they
inspired.
In the Farmer’s Wife book, Laurie Aaron Hird provides everything
to inspire you to create your own 111-block sampler quilt. No two
blocks are the same. Come in and see Club leader Katie’s 12-month
plan to guide you to completion of your very own “Farmer’s Wife”
sampler in 2012.
Katie has special bonuses available only to Farmer’s Wife Club
members. Join Katie the fourth Wednesday night of each month in
2012 at 7 PM, immediately following the Civil Warriors. |
