Did you ever hear your grandmother speak of the W.O.T.M. organization or her activities within it?<br /><br />I'll take a photo of the block with Alice Knapp's name and post it in the above blog article. You should be able to do a right click with your mouse and capture it. You can also do the same for the photo of the whole quilt. If you would prefer to receive it as an email attachment, contact me by email. Do you quilt?<br /><br />Karen A.KarenQuilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12883452794136245078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6679036230761807396.post-35523216174764666002013-01-01T17:41:09.141-08:002013-01-01T17:41:09.141-08:00My grandma was Alice Knapp who lived in Colville, ...My grandma was Alice Knapp who lived in Colville, WA, born about 1882. She had a maiden name of Huguenin. She was my 'step' grandma, but could not have been more dearly loved. I also had a cousin Alice Knapp but I believe she lived in another part of WA State at that time. I recognize other names also. The Skeels family lived on 3rd Ave., Mrs. Moser was a bigger than life fancy lady who worked at the funeral home and post office - I loved for giving me comfort after my dad died. Artman was an attorney in town whose kids I played with, and the Dunham's had a cabin on Black Lake near ours - I worked in the same agency as their son. Mr Art Hoeft raised miniature donkeys and, in retirement, was the kindly janitor at my high school. I would love a photo of my grandma's quilt block from this quilt.SA Stirlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15054500245653339861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6679036230761807396.post-72235861548041798512012-03-12T19:33:50.320-07:002012-03-12T19:33:50.320-07:00Thank you, Karen, for taking the time to pass the ...Thank you, Karen, for taking the time to pass the link on the Flora's descendant!
