Laurie Aaron Hird
The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt
Softcover & CD-ROM
In 1922, Farmer’s Wife magazine held a contest where they asked their readers "Do You Want Your Daughter To Marry a Farmer?" The response was overwhelming—and overwhelmingly positive. Now, the Farmer’s Wife Sampler Quilt brings together a sampling of these heartwarming letters from all over the United States. With titles like “Well Balanced and Happily Busy,” “I Lost My Heart to a Farmer” and “A Vote for the Country” they’re so much fun to read, but the neatest thing about Laurie Aaron Hird’s book is that it includes patterns for 111 traditional-style 6" quilt blocks inspired by the stories, that can be combined to create king, twin and crib size quilts. The bonus CD-ROM allows for easy printing and multiple uses of the templates.
