My alters are always a composite of pieces of art, plus "found" objects in nature that resonate for me. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" face="'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #333333; font-size: 11px;">Once I even converted a deep shelf in a linen closet into an alter. It called to me as a "place of silence" and I spent hours in that closet with candles lit as I struggled with life and its issues and the natural process of spiritual and emotional maturation.<br />
<br />
For me the everyday objects of my life carry profound meaning that speak to me and nurture me on a deeper level of knowing and being. But I have to be willing to "see" and prepare myself to "listen" by quieting the chatter in my mind. I have consciously wrestled with this Unknown Angel (my name for it) since the mid-70s. </span><br />

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I’m planning a talk or panel on the centennial of “The Jazz Age” in July (if the event doesn't get cancelled), but my main musical interest is what I call “The Great American Songbook.” </span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Before cruise ships were ghosted from the oceans of the world in March, I won my fifth crown in “Name That Tune” on the annual Jazz Cruise in the Caribbean February 6, hosted by clarinetist Ken Peplowski, with the Jazz Cruise musical director Shelly Berg at the piano (pictured below).</span><br />

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On Friday, April 10 (repeated Monday, April 13), I’m planning a program of songs devoted to our enforced national sequestration, beginning with “Mountain Greenery,” a 1925 Rodgers & Hart song containing the lines “how we love sequestering where no pests are pestering.” </span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After that, I’ll segue into a dozen categories of songs, beginning with social distancing songs (like “Too Close for Comfort”), then some nesting-at-home songs, like a rousing World War II song by Eddie Cantor, “We’re staying home tonight my baby and me, doing the patriotic thing.”</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">“We’re Staying Home Tonight</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My baby and me</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Doing the patriotic thing.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I’ve got my income-tax return to hurdle,</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And she’ll be saving mileage on her girdle!</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Don’t want to roam tonight,</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We’re snug as can be,</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Being alone is so sublime.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">While I sit in my slippers, and munch a piece of fruit,</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">She’ll iron out the wrinkles in my Victory Suit.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We’re staying home tonight, my baby and me</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Doing the patriotic thing.”</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">--Lyrics by Frank Loesser for the movie, “Thank Your Lucky Stars” (1943)</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A more modern expression of the same idea is by the late Bill Withers: “Just the Two of Us,” followed by similar titles like “Just You, Just Me” and that perfect oxymoron “Alone Together.”</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There are a wide variety of songs about wanting to travel or eat out (but we can’t). It used to be we can’t afford it, but now we don’t dare. A small sampling would include Sinatra’s seductive siren songs, “Come Fly with Me,” “Come Dance with Me” and “Let’s Get Away from It All.”</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I’ll have a special tribute to New York and their great spirit in taking the biggest brunt of this battle, and then songs about how are cities are closed down, with tunes like “It’s a Lonesome Old Town” and “Lonely Town” from the same Bernstein show that brought us “New York, New York” 75 years ago. Two generations will “Come Together” (if that is allowed these days) when Billy Joel and Tony Bennett celebrate Tony’s 90th birthday in “A New York State of Mind.”</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Then comes Sound of Silence: “Quiet Nights and Quiet Stars” and a gorgeous song called “Turn up the Quiet” for those suddenly quiet nights at home with no movies, restaurants or shows.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The final hour takes us back to our “Dear Departed Past” in a series of nostalgic songs by Dave Frishberg about baseball’s opening day and what “My Country Used to Be,” including a “Walk Down Wall Street,” with Ira Gershwin’s trenchant verses to songs during the Depression era, beginning, “Let it rain and thunder, let a million firms go under, I am not concerned with stocks and bonds that I’ve been burned with” (the verse to “Who Cares?” 1931) or “The more I read the papers, the less I comprehend, the world and all its capers, and how it all will end” (the verse to “Our Love is Here to Stay,” the last song George Gershwin wrote before dying in July 1937).</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The final 20 minutes includes five songs of hope about getting back together again, written in trying times: Frankie Laine’s “We’ll be Together Again” (1945) and Bing Crosby’s “I’ll Be Seeing You” (1944) for families split apart by war, with soldiers perhaps not coming home, then “Pick Yourself Up” and “Smile” from 1936, a Depression year, and closing with “Look for the Silver Lining” from 1919, the last year in which America suffered a killer plague like this.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif">I have been stitching on these blocks over our last two adventures with The Jazz Cruise. This year I suddenly thought...why don't I use the blocks to gather the musicians' signatures! Wa-la!</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="color: #1d2129;">Now I am going to try to design a rather "jazzy", unconventional setting for the blocks, not at all like the original blocks from the 1870s quilt would have been set. It will be fun to comb thru the gazillion digital photos I have stored, as well as my books, to get some ideas</span><span face=", , , , sans-serif" style="color: #1d2129;">.</span></span><br />

Gary tried to decipher the signatures after the fact. I should have jotted them down on a paper list as they signed each block but it didn't occur to me at the time.</div>

I haven't deciphered all the signatures, but by comparing their signatures on Gary's CDs and the context of who played with whom, we can identify about 80% of them:</div>

<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
“50TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR.” Woody Herman Big Band. Concord CJ302. Recorded last March at San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall, this is an almost flawless example of the current Herman Herd.</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Emerging as the unsung hero is John Fedchock, a superior jazz trombonist who also wrote all but one of the arrangements. It’s a typically eclectic Herman set, with themes drawn from Ellington, Coltrane, Monk, Bob Haggart (a fine “What’s New?”) and Fedchock himself. “Conga” is a brisk Latin pace-changer, and Lou Donaldson’s “Fried Buzzard” a vehicle for some funky cooking. “Epistrophy” is done partly in 6/8, building tension with Herman on soprano sax. Frank Tiberi, the band’s veteran tenor sax soloist, and Lynn Seaton, playing bass and singing a la Slam Stewart, contribute valuably to this 4 1/2-star session.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you click on the link above, you'll see the first article I wrote for my grandkids about my life before marriage. Only I called it "was there ever a life before quilting?" because they pretty much know me as a quilt collector and historian, not someone who lived overseas twice as a teenager.</div>
<br />
Now speed forward to 1972. College behind me, married and three small children. I gotta get some breathing room so I decide to volunteer where there are some adults ...and kids.... around.</div>

I found the perfect place across from the Santa Anita Race Track — the Los Angeles State/County Arboretum! One year I supervised their volunteer greenhouses; another year I lead school groups on nature tours of the Arboretum and taught a very basic botany class. In the photo below I am helping set up for the annual plant sale.</div>

Quilting didn't come about until I moved from Pasadena to the Richmond, Virginia area. I began my first quilt in 1980—a Sampler quilt. Didn't every new quilter in the 80s begin with a Quilt-As-You-Go Sampler class? Can you imagine a future generation eagerly adding these to their collections as a representative of our era? Well, they are already showing up on eBay....and reflecting varying degrees of competence.</div>

Then, when I quilted it, unbeknownst to me, some of the blocks became smaller as I quilted. When I tried to add the sashing, I was in trouble. Things didn't come together too well. (See the open seam below next to the orange sashing on the bottom strip.) I have already added little tiny extra pieces in some areas in order to make things fit. I discovered I had overlooked one when I photographed the quilt recently. It also needs the final border. Plus all the sashing needs to be quilted.</div>

After this quilt was started, I made a lot of small wall hangings. Many of my smaller items I sold or gave away in the 1980s. This is one of the ones I gave away to a dear friend. I think most of these fabrics are from the earliest line of <a href="http://www.jinnybeyer.com/">Jinny Beyer</a> fabrics.<br />

I very quickly discovered that I really did enjoy handwork, i.e. hand applique and handquilting. Here is an example of my one piece of stuffed work or trapunto as some might call it. Only the bird is actually stuffed from behind.</div>

I don't recall how I actually came by the dove pattern at the time. Two years ago, however, I discovered that Jinny Avery had included this same dove pattern in one of her early magazine articles from the late 1970s. <a href="http://www.mckimstudios.com/04treasures/singles/singles.shtml">Ruby McKim</a> also featured it in her <i>101 Patchwork Patterns </i>book, ca 1930.</div>

My 2nd "real quilt" (not a wall hanging) was begun in 1982. It was needle turn applique based on the folded paper pattern method. I got the oak leaf pattern idea from a quilt I saw at the <a href="http://www.history.org/history/museums/abby_art.cfm">Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum</a> in Williamsburg. The rest of them I just folded, sketched on the 1/8 triangular folded paper and cut.</div>

I quickly discovered I preferred applique to piecing. About this time we moved from Virginia to New Orleans and I went to work fulltime in convention planning. Actual quilt making then languished for several years although I did join a local guild and won the naming contest for their regional newsletter. And I continued to study quilt history, of course!</div>

This 2nd quilt is still not quite done and I don't have a full photo of it either. However, I did bring it out on September 11, 2001 and began quilting furiously for several weeks trying to calm myself. There was so much chaos and confusion and anger in the D.C. area where we then lived following the terrorist attacks. And then only a year later (or was it two?), we had the mysterious sniper to contend with for several weeks - or was it several months before they caught him? It was one of the most unsettling periods of my life as an American citizen. I was living in East Africa when Kennedy was assassinated and shortly thereafter survived an attempted coup d'état in Dar-es-Salaam. On September 11, 2001, I thought, "Well, international terrorism has finally caught up with the US, too. It's not enough that we have our own occasional home-grown terrorist attacks."</div>

My 1st finished "bed-useable" quilt was a baby quilt for a cousin's first child but I cannot find a photo of it. There was a <i>deadline</i> involved so I got it done! I mailed it off in 1986 or 1987.</div>

First came the quilt. We were spending 8 weeks here on the island that summer so I took that opportunity to take a quilting class at the Enchanted Needle here on Lopez. (See my story about this quilt shop on my other blog by <a href="http://enchantedquiltersoflopezisland.blogspot.com/2009/04/another-piece-of-eq-history.html">clicking here</a>.)</div>

That summer I really focused on the completion of the quilt top in what was a short window of time for me. Then I had a longarm quilter here on the island quilt it before we returned to Virginia....the husband of one of my quilt friends. He bought the longarm for his wife but, after trying it, she decided she was too small to handle the machine. All this is documented on the back of the quilt.</div>

<a href="http://karenquilt.blogspot.com/2012/08/fawns-and-bird-nests.html">Wini Alexander </a>is the one who got me into needlework in the first place. When she died in 1999, I inherited all her quilts and everything in her sewing room. So I took Wini's block and added to it. In this way, this small quilt came from both of us.</div>

In June I finished my first quilt in 9 years -- a small Eagle quilt -- and I owe it all to Susan Wildemuth, a fellow member of the American Quilt Study Group. More on AQSG later. Meanwhile, my Eagle story will appear in another blog post ....soon? But I already began to write about my 1876 Centennial Quilt Project <a href="http://karenquilt.blogspot.com/2019/03/1876-centennial-quilt-project-part-i.html">here</a>. Now this quilt was the challenge of a lifetime!<br />

A very special quiltmaker and personal friend here on Lopez Island passed very recently. Barbara Gonce (May 6, 1931- Dec 6, 2019) was a prolific quilter, a long-time member of Enchanted Quilters of Lopez Island and one of the 18 members of the pilot group for the 1876 Centennial Quilt Project that Anne Dawson began teaching in Sept 2015 here on Lopez. Eventually all 18 members of the initial pilot project saw their quilts hanging at the Houston International Quilt Festival in Nov 8-11, 2018, followed by the Chicago International Quilt Festival, March 28-30, 2019.</div>
<div style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: inherit;">
Meanwhile, Barbara Gonce con<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">tinued to make more beautiful quilts! Barbara dearly loved the gorgeous fabrics of Kaffe Fasset and attended many of his workshops over the years, corresponding often with Liza Lucy of the Kaffe Collective. <a href="http://www.friendsatfestival.com/archive/Spring2019/barbara-gonce.html">Click here to read an article</a> Bob Ruggiero wrote about Barbara for the Quilts, Inc. newsletter, <i>Quilts At Festival </i>in spring of 2019.</span></div>
<div style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: inherit;">
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
Barbara was a woman of boundless energy and determination. Though she had battled pulmonary fibrosis for these last many years, I strongly suspect her passion for quilt-making kept her alive several extra years, especially once she had the 1876 project dangling in front of her like a carrot to lure her on. (She made four of these magnificent quilts in three years! <a href="http://www.islandsweekly.com/life/1876-centennial-quilt-unveiled-may-6/">Click here</a> to read the local paper's 2017 story about the project.)</div>

Below are photos of Barbara's funeral and memorial service beginning with her pall draped casket. Barbara decided to plan and piece her own funeral pall about two years before she passed with some input and help from several people, including <span style="font-family: inherit;">Liza Lucy. And, of course, she was still making </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">quilts as well. Barbara also </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">meticulously planned </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">her own funeral and memorial service </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">with the help of several members of the 1876 Centennial Quilt Project the last months of her life. Ah, that we should all be so blessed to pass in our sleep during a nap as she did! We were all so grateful she was able to pass at home in her own bed. And, guess what! She had spent the day before at her sewing machine piecing still another quilt!</span></div>
<div style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
But Barbara had talents in addition to her quilting talents. She was an incredible organizer and motivator and donated her time and talents to many different community organizations over her lifetime, not least of which was helping to found Hospice of Marin (CA) in 1975, the 2nd oldest Hospice in the United States. She was also deeply involved in the local Girl Scouts in Southern California where she organized many camping trips, fundraisers and service projects for the local troop and council <span style="font-family: inherit;">before moving to Lopez Island</span><span style="font-family: inherit;">. Here on Lopez Island just one of the many things she did was to help found The Friends of Woodman Hall, an organization that is dedicated to the restoration and upkeep and care of one of the oldest buildings on Lopez Island. </span><br />

<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hello! My name is Heather Arps.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
On behalf of Barbara's family, I’d like to thank you all for coming today.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I knew Barbara mainly as a quilter. We met many years ago at a quilt class that I attended here on Lopez with another friend, Laurie Teichroew. During that class, the three of us got to talking and Laurie invited Barbara to our "Ladies of Tuesday Night" group and the rest, as they say, is history. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Over the years as our friendship deepened...I learned more about Barbara and her amazing life. She was proud of her accomplishments: from co-founding Hospice by the Bay, to earning blue ribbons for her orchids, and finally for creating a quilt that was chosen as the cover girl quilt for the International Quilt Festival in Chicago last year. In her personal life family was very important and she took her role as matriarch seriously. Her three children and their families were often mentioned in conversation with fondness and admiration. Her gratitude and love for Jerry, her husband, were frequent topics.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In spite of recent difficulties, Barbara felt herself to be very lucky.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And I must say that in many ways she led a charmed life.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Her sense of color was marvelous, her boldness with fabric refreshing and her willingness to try a new pattern or technique representative of her strong character. Barbara was a collaborative quilter. She drew you into her project, asking for an opinion or for fabric suggestions. She moved in many circles in the textile world and was delighted to count so many fellow quilters as dear friends.</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
She was a strong willed person, determined in her course. Not shy to speak her mind. But she would also listen to those with a different point of view. You might not sway her, but she would consider your perspective and a civilized discussion would ensue.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Her strong will stood her in good stead when she was diagnosed with interstitial lung disease. At first we did not understand the extent of damage to her lungs. Her fighting spirit did not let her complain or slow down much, she continued to visit with family, go to quilt shows, attended quilt retreats and our ‘Ladies of the Tuesday Night’ craft nights here on Lopez. And insisted on hostessing our annual Christmas dinner together.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It was business as usual for quite a while. Her motto was to just solder on. But in the last several years when the risk of infection became a serious threat, Barbara stayed home more and turned increasingly to her fabric for relief, comfort and distraction.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In 2015, she joined a quilt class on Lopez offered by Anne Dawson to recreate a quilt originally built in 1876. Being Barbara, she made four such quilts. She said each quilt taught her so much. After 18 months of toil and stitching by the group of 18 students, 23 quilts were offered as a special exhibit to the 2018 International Quilt Festival in Houston TX. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In true fashion, Barbara never doubted that the exhibit would be accepted. And as a group, we were giddy to be invited to send the exhibit on to Chicago...where Barbara’s third interpretation: “Kaffe and Friends Meet Cirque Du Soleil” was selected as the signature quilt for the festival. Despite the difficulty of travel at that time, and due entirely to the tremendous support of Jerry and family, Barbara attended both shows. Those two trips were a culmination of years of work and an acknowledgement of her great skill with fabric and needle. It was a dream come true and the time spent with family and friends counted as some of the best times of her life.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Near the end of September, Barbara received an email from Becky Navarro, the Special Exhibits Manager for Quilts Inc., the organization that produces the two International Quilt Festivals in the US. Becky invited Barbara to submit an application for a one women show to be exhibited in Long Beach, CA. July of 2020. Along with finishing various quilts, this exhibit became her new driving force. This pall is part of that exhibit and considered by many to be Barbara finest work.</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sadly, she died not having heard back from Long Beach...but secretly, I think she just got tired of waiting and decided to go to the top and find out for herself!<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the last few months as we worked on quilts and discussed end of life plans...Barbara talked about her life. And what came through most clearly was her love of quilting and her deep love for her family.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am thankful to have had the time with her near the end: to learn at the feet of a master quilter and to hear some stories of an amazing life.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thank you Barbara.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thank you Jerry.<br />
<br />

A wonderful way to display photographs. Cut them and mount them on florist stems like flowers!</div>

Barbara and her beloved Jerry. Oh, the stories that could be told about what this wonderful man did for his Barbara to see to it that she could continue to take on life as she desired these last many years. It was so obvious to see the love and respect they had for each other.<br />
Thank you, Jerry, for caring for her so.<br />

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Winter Day with
Sun<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">I am tucked away on my island,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Not My island really,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">But in my hideaway on an island<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Midst Puget Sound— that great water<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Which provides fish, and clams, and mussels<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">And even empathy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">For on a sunny winter day, with blue skies and
forty-five degrees,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Empathy comes unbidden.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">It is easy to forget dark memories<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">On a day like this one.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Those I have loved that have left,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Those I still love that have stayed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Someday soon I will sell my little piece of
solace—<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Taxes are nearly unbearable,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Retirement means downsizing,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Although the need for solitude grows
conversely<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">As age tamps down our spirits, illness reduces
our courage,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">We falter along the road.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">And yet, boats in the bay bob unwavering in
their joy <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">When a tight breeze comes up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">A seal swims by, otters frolic, searching out
food and a warm basement<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">In which to stay awhile, to digest, to expel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Oh Barbara is gone, her quilts around her, her
smile effervescent.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">She does not need oxygen now, not naturally
given by atmosphere on earth,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Or the artificial, from bottles chemists
created to prolong her breath.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">How she loved bright colors—the orange,
yellow, fuchsia, purple.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Fondling them in fabric gave her joy as she
toiled her last days,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Aware that death was nearly at hand, but
without the knowledge when.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Her shroud prepared, to be placed on her
coffin<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">And buried with her as a visual marker of time
among us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">As if we could forget her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Our memories burn with the vision of her exuberant
head of white hair,<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="color: #500050;">The easy laugh, her serious gaze,</span><br />
<span style="color: #500050;">Love of beautiful orchids in greenhouses</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Her voice-song rings in my ears still.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">I sit with a cup of tea growing cool to the
touch,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Clouds gathering, rain on its way,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Peaceful, quietly remembering so much<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #500050;">Of my life played out on this beautiful
island.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b style="color: #1c1e21;">After I posted Barbara's funeral pall on the Kaffe Fassett Collective fb page today, Liza Lucy wrote the following and gave me permission to share here. I am so pleased to have more of the process story documented about the creation of </b><span style="color: #1c1e21;"><b>“To Beyond the Beyond”. Thank you, Lucy</b></span><b style="color: #1c1e21;">: </b><br />

<i>When Barbara wrote to me to ask if I would help her design a cover for her casket I was taken aback. I knew she had been ailing for a number of years and I knew her to be frank and honest. I just wasn't prepared for this expression of her mortality or for this unusual request. After a moment, I realized this was a great honor and I said yes. For her to travel to Houston to meet me and to attend the show that year, took an extraordinary effort. She could not fly and she lived in the Pacific NW. She traveled by train and car the entire way and it was not altogether a pleasant ride. But Barbara was a persistent woman. She brought me a huge stash and the layout she had designed and together we chose colors for each section. I am glad she was able to complete the project. She was SOME WOMAN! I will miss her.</i></div>

PS: And a little acknowledgement of another quilter in this same family...Wendy Ward, Barbara's daughter. This is a blog post I wrote about Wendy coming to teach a workshop for the Enchanted Quilters of Lopez Island, of which her mother (Barbara Gonce above) was president at one time. <a href="http://enchantedquiltersoflopezisland.blogspot.com/2009/04/art-of-fabric-collage.html">http://enchantedquiltersoflopezisland.blogspot.com/2009/04/art-of-fabric-collage.html</a><br />

QUOTE: When [photographer] Clara Brian began her education
in 1913 home economics was very new as a national movement. It was a time in
American society when, as <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Richard
Hofstadter</b> described it, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">"that
broader impulse toward criticism and change that was everywhere so conspicuous
after 1900... effected in a striking way...the whole tone of American political
life."</b> Americans had a feeling of evangelical optimism, the conviction
that by hard work and education, through the application of scientific
principles and with the spirit of sacrifice and cooperative action, people
could improve and reform society, each other, themselves, for a more spiritual
and idealized order.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">“As a member of the avant-garde who is <b>capable
of perceiving the conspiracy before it is fully obvious to an as yet unaroused
public</b>, the paranoid is a militant leader. He does not see social conflict as
something to be mediated and compromised, in the manner of the working
politician. Since what is at stake is always a conflict between absolute good
and absolute evil, what is necessary is not compromise but the will to fight
things out to a finish. <b>Since the enemy is thought of as being totally evil and
totally unappeasable, he must be totally eliminated–if not from the world, at
least from the theatre of operations to which the paranoid directs his
attention. </b>This demand for total triumph leads to the formulation of hopelessly
unrealistic goals, and since these goals are not even remotely attainable,
failure constantly heightens the paranoid’s sense of frustration. Even partial
success leaves him with the same feeling of powerlessness with which he began,
and this in turn only strengthens his awareness of the vast and terrifying
quality of the enemy he opposes.”</span><span style="color: #181818; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;" />

</span><span data-offset-key="5hucu-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">How many of you viewed <a href="https://www.liveauctioneers.com/en-gb/item/71384124_hand-made-baby-quilt-71-x-84">this quilt </a>when it went up for auction earlier this year? It sold for an astounding amount for a Sunbonnet Sue, in my opinion. But it truly is one very interesting and unique quilt due to its extensive embroidery. </span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> It would make for a great pattern series.</span></div>

My other quilt that only somewhat resembles the quilt in the recent InvaluableAuction is actually no longer a quilt with three layers. It is now only a top but shows that one time it was tied. It needs a good pressing but no time for that right now. I'll press it before the exhibit goes up October 5th. See the photos below.</div>

I recently stumbled upon a quilt that is what I call a Sampler Quilt of US Postage Stamps. Now I am trying to track down the source of the pattern. Going down such research rabbit holes is what my life is all about. (At least postage stamps are easier to identify since they usually contain the name of the issuing country and sometimes the year, too.)</div>

Love, love applique! Still trying to track this pattern source, too. I'm pretty certain it was a commercial pattern, maybe from the 1940s or 50s.</div>

A recent addition to my collection said to be Cuban made. Each block is signed with a first name and three have the date of 1996 stitched on them as well. Any of my readers familiar with Cuban needlework? More photos on my next blog post.</div>

<b>1876 Centennial Quilt Unveiled </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by Karen B. Alexander<br />
(Updated version)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
“What is it about quilts with you quilt historians?” is a question I hear frequently.<br />
<br />
Among the many answers to the question – why I study quilts – is that quilt history is a natural vehicle for a wide-range of learning in the fields of social history, women’s history and textile manufacturing history, to name a few. Sadly, most quilts lose their maker’s story over the generations, especially once the quilt leaves the family. But sometimes, these lost quilts are rediscovered.<br />
<br />
In May of 2015, I discovered a quilt which contained over 70 different patterns set in a medallion-style arrangement. It contained the date 1876 and the initials EMC in four separate large circles. <br />
<br />
The quilt was simply stunning. I knew I had to share the image of this quilt with the members of my bee, the Ladies of Tuesday Night. I did not tell the group what I hoped, i.e. that they would help persuade Anne Dawson, owner of our little island’s quilt shop <a href="https://www.lopezislandquiltersstudio.com/shop/The-1876-Centennial-Quilt-Project.htm">The Quilter’s Studio</a>, to draft the 70+ patterns. I waited to see their reactions first. But sure enough, several responded with the same joyful exclamation: “I want to make this quilt! Let’s ask Anne if she will draft it for us.” Exactly what I had hoped to hear!<br />
<br />
Only Anne can tell the full story of what she went through wrestling with herself over whether or not to take on this enormous challenge, but eventually she said yes. The next step was to ask the owner of the quilt, Barbara Menasian of Connecticut, if she would allow us to pattern it. Many emails flew back and forth over a period of several weeks but suddenly, one day, our 1876 project was a go! Barbara had said yes!<br />
<br />
All the block patterns in this quilt have been around for well over 100 years. However, it is the “arrangement” of the blocks in this quilt that is so unique and so exacting. Originally Anne thought only six to eight quilters might enroll in her class. But what a response! 17 from the San Juan Islands, Bellingham and Seattle signed up including the Connecticut owner, who decided to join us —by correspondence— and finally learn how to quilt herself.<br />
<br />
The journey has been challenging for all, not the least for Barbara Gonce of Lopez Island, the oldest member of our project. Barbara G. eventually made four versions of the quilt to showcase how changing fabric styles and colors affects the overall appearance of this quilt. Meanwhile, I struggled to get one quilt made!<br />
<br />
We still have many questions to solve. We know nothing more about the original maker, other than her initials – EMC. Did she make the quilt in Connecticut where it was found? We think so. At least two are working to track her down. <br />
<br />
Our works-in-progress exhibit took place May 6, 2017, at Woodmen Hall, on Fishermen Bay Rd. EMC was even present for Barbara Menasian had flown in from Connecticut with it in her arms for this very special unveiling. The very first official public viewing of all 23 finished quilts in the pilot project took place in November 2018. But, whoops, I'm jumping too far ahead too fast! The telling of that exciting adventure is another story for another day.<br />

The focus of my quilt research in 1998 was the Shenandoah Valley... three counties in particular: Rockingham, Shenandoah, and Page counties. My Biedler ancestors used to live in all three counties. My great-grandfather's place is still in the family in Page County near Luray, VA.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Saturday, Nov 14, 1998, I drove to Green Valley Auction
House for the first time. It's just south of Harrisonburg. I had just learned about the auction house from a friend a couple of weeks earlier. Green Valley had
an unusually large auction that past 3-day weekend. It consisted of almost all
Valley antiques. The special highlight that had drawn a huge crowd was the one
of a kind, R. Merlin Turner's life-time collection of Shenandoah Valley
pottery. This auction was, for the most part, Shenandoah Valley antiques. It
wasn't stuff trucked in from out of state. But hey, I love any auction. What
FUN!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I had finally decided to make the trek down from the DC area to an Auction House this time because there were
to be 10 quilts included in the auction, nine from one family. This was an
unusual chance to be able to document a single family's collection.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Usually you find only a one or two
quilts at a time from a given family at an estate auction. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I really shouldn't have bid .... I was suppose to be there for
research purposes only. But I gave in and bid, anyway, and came away with one quilt, the second
to the cheapest that day. (Yes, it is quite worn.) The pattern is known as Ocean
Waves, which includes lots of different fabrics which makes it a good period fabric STUDY piece as well. <i style="text-align: center;">See Brackman’s Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns #113a, pg. 23.</i></div>

So much for ONLY documenting, photographing, and gathering the history on the family who made them. But I just couldn't resist. This is the 3rd Valley quilt I have bought this year. My other two are much nicer, but only cost a little more. Paid too much for this one, but couldn't resist the chance to own at least one quilt from this family grouping since I photographed and plan to document the whole group.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
It takes a LOT of discipline NOT to get caught up in the excitement of an auction!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This was the first "Auction House" auction I had attended in the Valley. I usually go only to estate auctions that are held right on the family farm. That is where you can get the best buys as well as stand a good chance of doing interviews and getting a lot of basic research done right on the spot. As for the quilt I just bought, I know only the name of the woman who was selling (Russell) and the family name from whom the quilts came (Traver). I am going to have to track down the sellers address or phone number through the auctioneer in order to pursue further research.</div>

While photographing the quilts I had several women approach
me and ask me if I quilted. I told them I used to, but now only do research and
write about them. I told them at the time that my focus was the Shenandoah Valley, and gave
them my business card. After glancing at my card, one older woman (a Mrs. Bruce
Helsley) asked if I would be interested is seeing her collection. I jumped at
the offer!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She lives in Woodstock
in Shenandoah County very near where the Biedlers first settled. Woodstock is where the Beidler
furniture store resides. Mrs. Helsley and I hoped to get
together after the first of the year but for reasons I now cannot recall, we never did get together. What a shame!</div>

<o:p>(<b>A footnote of history</b>: An advertisement ran in the local newspaper Nov. 17, 1945 which stated: <i>One year ago was the opening of Beidler’s Furniture Store in Woodstock. This means that my First Anniversary is due to your loyalty and support. I wish to thank each and every one of my friends and customers who helped make this possible. Fred B. Beidler</i>.)</o:p></div>

Another woman (Ingrid Shomo) who was sitting near the quilt
display rack invited me to sit next to her. Ingrid is not a quilter herself
(she's a therapist), but several of her friends are quilters, and she gave me their
names and numbers, thinking they might help me track down other collections for
documentation. Ingrid seemed to know everyone that walked by, and continually
pointed out people to me and told me who they were and what they did. She also
was great at explaining the whole Auction House system to me, and told me that
everything on the stage behind the auctioneer was up for sale to, and that I
should walk up there and photograph the hanging quilts as well. I grinned and
said I already had. (I had made sure when I entered and was registering for a number
that I also got permission to photograph. I saw the hanging quilts as soon as I
entered the giant hall and had quickly headed on-stage.)</div>

It's always great for documentation purposes if you can see quilts in context of their "life"; or at least in context of an auction house surrounded by other quilts from the same household, if they are present. There were two sources for the quilts in this auction. The green note below describes the two groups of quilts at Green Valley Auction that day.</div>

It was a warm June day in The Valley. The blue sky was filed with large billowing white clouds. As soon as I parked my car and walked up the driveway, movement to my left caught my eye. My heart took a leap. There before me, stretched across two long clothes-lines, were 10-12 quilts flapping in the breeze. This, of course, is why I had driven the hour and a half to the Stony Man area of Page County near Luray, Virginia. Quilts! Quilts had been mentioned in an estate auction ad in the local paper. I had subscribed to this paper just for such an opportunity as this.</div>

appeared to be playing hide and seek. But one quilt leapt out again and again.
You couldn't miss it. Its boldness was in such sharp contrast to the other
quilts on the line. I looked at other items in the auction first, feigning
non-interest in the quilts. What a joke. I had guessed from a distance that the
"bold one" must be late 19th century, and upon closer inspection the
fabrics proved me right. I was soon taking a dozen photos of the quilts from
every angle.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There are always dealers present at such estate auctions,
and I just knew they would go after this “bold” quilt; but, oh, how I wanted <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">that</i> quilt. It was the finest specimen
of a “folk art” quilt that I had seen at any of the 5-6 Valley estate auctions
I had attended. I had been pining for a really special Valley quilt for my very
small collection for a very long time, one that I could afford. I have seen
many in dealers’ hands but I was not prepared to pay $700-$1,500. To stretch my
money, I would always try to track a quilt down at its source and get it ahead
of a dealer.</div>

The colors were bright and clear showing that the quilt had
seldom been used, if in fact ever washed. Though there were a few stains on it
that could have come from contact with wood acid over the years, the stains
were small and didn't impair the visual impact of the front of the quilt at
all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The choice of colors very much
reminded me of the bright “folk” colors I associate with the "Pennsylvania
Dutch look" in the Shenandoah Valley: double pinks, cheddar orange, rusts,
and cadet blue.</div>

I started asking questions right away, trying to find out
the history of the quilt's maker. Four hours later, when the quilts themselves
finally came up for auction, I had met at least four distant cousins of the
maker, as well as nieces and nephews of the owner of the house. I was told at
the time by the relatives that I met that the quilts were made by the
house-owner's mother, Nettie [Miller] Sours.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The sale drew many distant kin to the farm that day which helped me immeasurably in patching together the family history. I was finally able to gather the maiden names of the women of the family to the 3rd generation, a wonderful beginning with which to do further research.</div>

the story I needed to document the quilt. Now could I win the bid? I didn't
want to go over $400, but I was psychologically prepared to go to $500. The
bidding was fast and furious! I think 5 people were in on it initially, but two
dropped out quickly. At $250 the one whom I guessed was a "picker"—because I had
seen him buying large quantities of artifacts at other auctions—dropped out.
Some believe that "pickers" will only buy if they feel they can turn around and
at least double the price and still re-sell it reasonably quickly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Whew, at least the dealer was out of the race.
But I had not won, yet. Another woman in the crowd hung in there and kept
pushing the bid up. Luck was with me, though, for I finally won what I came to
call "Nettie's Beauty" for less than the $500 I had been willing to
go to!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

<o:p> </o:p>During my interviewing earlier in the day, one of the cousins
had pointed out a book to me that contained a newspaper clipping about Nettie.
It was dated 1962. Nettie was 81
years old at the time. Boy, did I want that newspaper clipping for my
documentation! The only thing to do was stick around and bid on the box of
books. The newspaper clipping was about her rug weaving. That's when I learned
that Nettie was "famous" in that area of The Valley for her rug
weaving, not her quilting.</div>

When I finally realized I wouldn't be able to stick around
to bid on one of Nettie' rugs or the box of books, I looked up the Executor of
the Estate and asked her if I could make an outrageous request. I told her I
didn't know what the rules of an auction were, but that I really would like to
have that newspaper clipping...or at least a copy of it. She asked me to show her where it was.
I did and she gave it to me!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Several in the crowd congratulated me afterwards for winning the quilt. I had interviewed so many of them that they knew how much I had wanted Nettie's special quilt….enough to get much of the history on the maker ahead of time. I suspected they appreciated my interest in Nettie herself even more than my interest in her quilt. Several made a point of saying good-bye as I was leaving. That was unusual for I had been a stranger among them when I arrived and their friendliness left a very good feeling. I hoped I had left them with a sense that this quilt would be well loved and cared for.</div>

Afterwards I continued to do research on Nettie in the
genealogy archives at the Page County Library and continued to call and
correspond with family members. After Nettie’s story appeared in the newsletter
of the Genealogical Society of Page County in August 2000, I received an e-mail
from Debbie Leon of northern Virginia, a great-great niece of Nettie [Miller]
Sours. According to oral history passed down in Debbie’s branch of the family,
it is believed that Nettie’s mother, Sarah [Pettit] Miller, made the quilt, not
Nettie.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When you study all the quilts that were hanging on the line the day of the auction (see photos), “Nettie’s Beauty”, as I now call this quilt, was vastly different from any of the other quilts. Given that many of the fabrics in this quilt were from within the decade in which Nettie was born, it is quite logical that Sarah [Pettit] Miller, Nettie’s mother, could have made the quilt. The fabrics could certainly have been from either one of their scrap bags, if one assumes Sarah had passed down some fabrics to Nettie or that Nettie had made this quilt in her early teens and used her mother’s scrap bag. </div>

Hand quilting could possibly provide a clue, but unless I can track down other
quilts known to have been made by Sarah [Pettit] Miller, I have no basis for
the comparison of the hand quilting. The only other quilt I bought that day was
a tied comforter with no quilting on it. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The puzzling part to me, however, was the 1962 newspaper
article I obtained the day of the auction. It was all about Nettie’s rag rug
weaving, never once mentioning any quilt making. That is another piece of
circumstantial evidence that Sarah may have made the quilt, rather than Nettie.
None of the other quilts on the line appeared as old as “Nettie’s Beauty” nor
were any of them as intricately made. </div>

<o:p> </o:p>In 2005 I made contact with still another Miller descendant,
Nettie’s great-great nephew Robert Riley, also of northern Virginia. He had his
own memories of Nettie as well as stories he had heard passed down in the
family, stories that didn’t always jive with what others had told me. But this
can often be the case in families. Oral history often contains a grain of truth
but may be unreliable as “documentable” history; but at least it gives you a
place to start your research as a genealogist and quilt historian.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My favorite story from Robert was of Nettie’s skill with a
whip.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His childhood memory of her
was that of a tough, independent “mountain woman,” he told me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whenever she discovered a snake in her
garden, she would “get her whip and snap the critter in two.” </div>

But for Robert,
Netties' best trait was her personality. “She loved to laugh and tell stories
and hear what city life was like as told by my parents. If she found something
funny, she would laugh out and pull her apron up over her face.” When the
family was planning to visit Luray, Robert explained, his mother would “write
Nettie and ask if she needed anything. Her return letter would often request a
fresh fish and a pint of whiskey.” According to Robert, Nettie Miller Sours
died in her sleep at the home she and her husband Charlie had shared all their
married life, and was “found in her own bed with her hands neatly crossed over
her chest”. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

The most exciting part of collecting is the hunt, some say. But for me, there is also the documentation. That is another kind of "hunt" and requires time and sleuthing skills....and often sheer luck. Take "Sue Dusting the Flowers" as a case in point, a quilt added to my collection in November 2017. Whimsical, no? I had never seen one like it before!</div>

The first thing I did was check my copy of Betty Hagerman's book which you saw at the beginning of this post. Nada.....though there were a couple of designs that one could see might have inspired someone to rift in this direction, creating their own unique variation of SBS. But there certainly was no exact match.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Then I checked two other books in my personal library: Quilts for Babies & Children by Dolores A. Hinson (1983), Barbara Brackman's "Encyclopedia of Applique" (1993). Again, nothing.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But Lady Luck came a knocking the very next month via eBay. Though she didn't bring me the complete answer, she gave me a strong clue as to where to go digging next.......published embroidery patterns maybe?</div>

I hope to hang an exhibit of my eclectic SBS and Overall Sam collection next May or June telling the history if images of children and human figures on quilts. The exhibit will be here on Lopez island and will be a fund fund raiser for the maintenance of Woodman Hall, one of the oldest community buildings on the island. I hope to wrap it in with a meeting of the Washington Quilt Study Group as well so stay tuned!</div>

Why did I buy the spinning wheel quilt (other than the fact that I love old quilts, period!) I bought it mainly because I inherited a family spinning wheel from <span style="line-height: 18.2px;">the Shenandoah Valley before I left Virginia in 2004!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span>I am so grateful life took us to Virginia for 15 years, thus enabling me to do primary family research. I inherited this beautiful object from 101 year-old Mary Lucille Biedler Piner, a distant cousin. I discovered her brother Claude Daniel Biedler in Vienna, VA about 1991, which eventually led me to Lucille who lived in Shelby, NC at the time.</div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span>Just above is a photo of Luciile's grandparents, her grandfather being my Grandfather's uncle and her grandmother being the one who originally owned the spinning wheel and from whom Lucille inherited it. This branch of the Biedler family lived near New Market, VA and built the Biedler Covered Bridge in 1895, the last covered bridge in Virginia on private land (not owned by the state) that is still in daily use. Some of my research on this family was referenced in the book "The Covered Bridges of Virginia" by Leola B. Pierce.</div>
<div style="font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 13px;">
Besides the spinning wheel, I also inherited 15 Farm Ledgers from Lucille about the building and working of the Biedler Covered Bridge Farm from the 1870-1960. The ledgers even list all the men hired to make the bricks right there on the farm and lists all the construction supplies Daniel ordered</div>

One or two of the ledgers I have were kept by the women of the family. In those ledgers they recorded the money they made from the selling of their turkeys / chickens / and eggs. I was told that money was theirs to spend as they chose for they hard earned it. It is all great reading if you love studying cultural history.</div>

So many more things to write about, but it is time to get back to a quilting deadline I have. I actually don't quilt very often. As much as I love it, I love research and writing even more so that is where I spend most of my time.</div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , "verdana" , "helvetica" , "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">A friend asked me recently how I could get so excited about quilt history. To her the color and design of quilts is what excited her, as well as the connection to the person to whom she was going <u>to give</u> the quilt, not necessarily the history of quilts in general. I had to really ponder her question.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , "verdana" , "helvetica" , "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I love the color and the design as well. But I also love the "connectedness" of quilts. All quilts ultimately contain a story. It's just that most of them we will never know. But its ferreting out the leads, however small, that intrigues me. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , "verdana" , "helvetica" , "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Quilts reflect the various eras of art history as well as changing social values. They also reflect and document Western societies' shift in attitudes and perceptions of children and childhood. The illustrations of author Kate Greenway were some of the first images of children translated into needlework patterns and one can trace children's dress, games and moral education thru quilt patterns.</span></span><br />

One will soon discover upon acquiring a <a href="http://www.quiltindex.org/sqpessay.php">Signature Quilt</a> that one can actually tease out the stories of these lives thru diligently digging into historical records.

<br />
<br />
<br />
Quilts that don't come with a date stitched into them or somehow inked on them have other ways of giving us clues as to their approximate age. Style is just one clue. Here is a general style guideline handed out at the first meeting of the Northern Virginia Quilt & Fabric Dating Club in June 1995. I have barely tweaked it. Any suggestions or additions?<br />
<br />
As you can see, it doesn't go much beyond 1950. New categories have been established by quilt appraisers for quilts after 1950, I am sure, so it's probably time for me to update this list. But since most quilts in my collection pre-date 1960, I haven't yet taken the time to update my own list.<br />
<br />

<b>Fabric Dating</b> </div>
<br />
For me, the strongest clue is usually the fabric itself, but that took years of studying lots of old quilts and the clues break down within this category, too: scale of print, color scheme within individual prints, printing techniques, print styles, weave.<br />
<br />
Solid colors can be a problem, though. Then you have to rely on any number of other clues, like pattern, style, the combination of the solid colors used in the quilt, dyes, etc.<br />

<br />
<br />
Eileen Jahnke Trestain books, "Dating Fabrics, A Color guide 1800-1960" and "Dating Fabrics, A Color guide 1950-2000" are the two handiest guide books I have come across to help see the differences in color and design, era by era, at a glance.<br />

<b>Cheater Cloth or Faux Patchwork</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The term "cheatercloth" was new to me as I began studying quilt history in the early 1980s. Some folks call it "faux" patchwork cloth. Others simply call it "pre-printed patchwork." For me it's especially fun to find the early stuff, i.e. pre 1900 but I do also buy small pieces of 20th century "cheater cloth" because they are good tools to show what color combinations were popular at a given time period.<br />
<br />
Here are a couple of items from my doll quilt collection and yardage collection.<br />

Quilts" are one of my favorite style of quilt. It is so exciting to find a quilt inside another quilt. Even if the inner quilt doesn’t turn out to be anything spectacular, the adventure of documenting it is still just as exciting. </span></div>

<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande";">I well remember visiting the house in the Shenandoah Valley as a child. To my siblings and me, the house (as well as the two elderly great-aunts!) seemed like the ancient of days. The house seemed to have stopped in time at about 1920, the year my father was born and the year my Great-Grandmother died.</span><br />

<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande";">My two great-aunts seemingly NEVER threw anything away. You had to wear a mask to sift through everything and it took several years. Fortunately, my father loved genealogical sleuthing as much as I did, so he tried to eyeball everything ---although some of it was so rodent infested even he couldn’t bring himself to attempt to decipher what it was.

<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande";">I took this quilt to the AQSG (<a href="http://www.americanquiltstudygroup.org/seminar.asp">American Quilt Study Group</a>) Seminar in 1989 when we met in Chevy
Chase, Maryland. Barbara Brackman looked at it and said she would date the blocks from the
1840s to 1890. It has the initials LH roughly embroidered on the back. My Great
Aunt's married name was Lena Huffman. I am assuming she took her mother's and/or
grandmother's collection of blocks and put them together in the 1890s. </span><br />
<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande";"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande";">Brackman speculated at the time that here
was another quilt inside my Pattern Sampler Quilt! However, it wasn't until the AQSG Seminar in 2001 in Williamsburg, Virginia when I finally opened it up. Actually, I didn't open it myself. AQSG member Judy Grow volunteered to take it up to her room and undo all the ties and take the stitching out along the top so that we could see inside. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande";">Unfortunately, I did not to think to have someone take photos at the time as she went through this set-by-step procedure of opening the quilt. Instead, several years later I re-inserted the inner quilt and sort of reenacted the opening of it to dramatize the process and take photos. Unfortunately, it was no where near as dramatic as the first opening.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "lucida grande";">One AQSG member who knows a lot about weaving (whose name I now cannot recall) told me that some of the patches on the front of the inside quilt were hand-loomed linsey-woolsey. That got me very excited because one of the other near-by Biedler family farms (still in the family at the time) had a log Loom House still standing. I can't "prove" those patches came from that other Biedler Farm, but knowing how inter-connected and inter-dependent the extended family was between the three large farms three brothers and their descendants owned from 1802-1900, I wouldn't be surprised if it had been woven in that cabin.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Is it a *Strippy Quilt or a Bar Quilt?</b></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Personally, I would call the one side of the inner quilt a "Strippy" quilt, not a "Bars" quilt based purely on a research project Hazel Carter and I did on Strippy Quilts and reported on in Blanket Statements Spring 2007 issue #87.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I think so-called "Strippy" quilts is another area where terminology has not been set in stone. We found that one museum would call them one thing and another museum would call them another thing. Brackman refers to them as “Strip” quilts. Hazel Carter and I chose to use the British term “Strippy Quilt” for this style of quilt.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Brackman wrote in "The Strip Tradition in European-American Quilts" in the Clarion-Fall 1989 (published by American Folk Art Museum), “An examination of setting characteristics in American quilts makes the case for a traditional American strip quilt that predated the rise of the block quilt and endured as an alternative design structure in the mainstream quiltmaking culture and in smaller communities.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Our study encompassed 120 quilts that predated 1899 and did not include Amish "bar" quilts since the majority of those were made in the 20th century. We combed through all of our combined quilt history books for published examples plus did research at the Smithsonian where we were permitted to make copies of some of the research in each of their Strippy quilt files. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Whose terminology will become the accepted standard in our field of study? The Quilt Index? The International Quilt Study Center? Will all museums eventually look to use one standard definition?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Quite frankly, it was difficult to draw conclusions from our research about any “standard” to this style of quilt. Rather, the study seemed to reveal the importance of the individual ingenuity of quilt makers working within a loose tradition.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Also, in some texts we studied, it was stated that this style of quilt was intended as a utility quilt. However, on the whole, the fabrics in the quilts in our study were of pleasing high quality. Moreover, many of the quilts in the study exhibit exquisite quilting, dispelling the assumption “Strippies” resulted from strictly utilitarian motives.</div>

<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast;">I knew from family records found in the old Valley House that my
Great-Grandfather Samuel Milton Biedler bought his mother's quilt at her estate Auction in 1860. I am
assuming that at that time whatever one didn't give away before one died —and
wasn't individually listed in one's Will — had to be then be auctioned off with
the proceeds going either to pay one's debts or to one's heir? Ah, more research to be done.</span><br />

members had actually bid on items at the estate settlement auctions of their parents. I had always assumed the items we found in the old family home places had been "given" to other family
members…. until Dad and I stumbled on those settlement papers.</span></div>

<span style="color: #323232; font-family: "lucida grande"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast;">My Great-Great-Grandmother died in 1860. We found the Estate paper listing her personal possessions that were
sold at Auction to settle her estate. Each item was separately listed along
with the name of the person who bought the item—mostly family members. A “Blue
Quilt” was mentioned. I have often wondered if the above quilt was that
"blue" quilt.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "times"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Hi Karen -</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I love your quilt -- and that it's a family piece is even
more special.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I wanted to tell you about current practices in my area
that "everything</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
goes to sale" when someone dies or severely
downsizes.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I was first introduced to this concept about 1968 when my
sister-in-law's grandparents "had sale" -- that's the phrase used in
PA German areas for your total house auction.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I learned that she was going to be bidding on a child's
rocking chair that she loved as a child, which I thought strange at the time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I (at age 22) thought
you inherited the items, you didn't have to buy them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Wrong. This was an old Conservative Mennonite couple in York
County, PA.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I learned that
if a family member wanted something, they bid on it at the auction.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I remember her family --
children, spouses and grandchildren, sitting in the front row of lawn chairs
and everyone else either in chairs behind or standing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I don't know how I learned it, but
the local dealers didn't bid up the family on items – family members bought
those items they wanted and it was deducted from their "cut" somehow
-- I don't remember the details -- it was a long time ago and was all new to
me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I do remember that
dealers would bid till something was a reasonable price, but no bidding wars
with family members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If
family members got into wars, I don't know, since we were newly married and I
didn't know her family at the time.</div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Fast forward a few decades -- in 2007 I worked with a local group -- Historic Poole Forge -- to mount an exhibit of locally owned antique quilts in an old Iron Master's Mansion. One Amish family – Lancaster County -- loaned us 2 quilts and a few other textiles from his family (he was born in 1950). Both he and his wife named which sale they had purchased each item from -- all part of the family. I've learned that in the”plain” community, the old practice of descendants purchasing items at sale is still practiced. It's actually a very logical way to disperse items in a fair way when there are 7 to 12 children plus 50 to 100 grandchildren. There's no fighting, no taking items "because I want my fair share" – if you want it you buy it.<br />
<br />
So, I wasn't surprised to read that your great grandfather bought his mother's quilt at her estate auction in the Shenandoah Valley -- it all fits together in my mind. How wonderful to have the estate auction paper -- I've never seen one -- that is so cool.<br />
<br />
...those are the 2 concrete examples I have. I've also overheard women at the Mennonite thrift store where I volunteer talk about "so and so is having sale" so I'm fairly sure it's still happening.<br />
<br />
Side note -- while the signs and ads say "auction" I don't hear people saying "auction" -- they say "sale", as in "Wengers are having sale this Saturday." We recently had our big Relief Sale in Harrisburg -- and it's an auction of quilts.<br />

Thank you so much, Barb, for all this information on the
traditions surrounding the settling of an estate in PA among the Amish and
Mennonites in PA!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This makes total
sense because my ancestors were Mennonites from PA who became either Brethren
or Primitive Baptists in the Valley after about 1800 (depending on the branch
of the family). Almost all the buyers at my Great-Great-Grandmother's estate
auction were immediate family members, aunts, uncles or first or 2nd cousins,
etc. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I will share some of this insight you have given me when I
put the story on my blog.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I'm glad the subject of Pattern Quilts came up today because I have been
meaning to write this all down for the family. Right now its just in bits and
pieces scattered here and there in my files.</div>

Have any of you seen this fabric on the bolt in a quilt shop? </span></span></span><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
From time to time we have a discussion on the price of cotton fabric for quilting on one of the several quilt history Facebook lists I follow. A recent discussion got me to remembering that I had transcribed some old family ledgers that my father found in my Great-Grandfather's home place near Luray in Page County, Virginia.<br />
<br />
Samuel Milton Biedler (with beard) owned a Dry Goods Store in Stanley, Page Co., Virginia, from approximately 1870 until 1900. Seated on front porch of the old someplace with his wife Margaret Amanda (Varner) Biedler about 1902. My grandfather (Daniel Lampton Biedler) is seated at the left on the porch step.<br />
<br />
The makers of the two quilts at the end of this post are one or both of my great aunts in the photo. On the far left is Annie Alderton Biedler, who never married. Standing at the back on the far right is Lena Biedler Huffman. I knew both of these Great Aunts as a child and they were formidable, especially Aunt Lena! It is also quite possible that my Great-Grandmother may have made some of the blocks in the Sampler quilt below for the blocks range from ca1840 to the 1890s.<br />

Here are two transcribed pages from a ledger dated 1875. I have highlighted in red goods related to sewing. I have also added an alphabetical list of names mentioned on the two found pages from the ledger. I also attempted to GUESS what someone's occupation might be by what was noted on these two ledger pages.<br />

I wrote in 2011 about Ulster inspired quilts…or possibly Ultser inspired, per the research of Valerie Wilson published in 1991. You can <a href="http://karenquilt.blogspot.com/2011/03/what-is-ulster-inspired-quilt.html">click here</a> to see that post.<br />
<br />
The other day I stumbled across a top on eBay that so reminded me of a photo in that 1991 Uncoverings American Quilt Study Group (AQSG) research paper that I snapped it up.<br />
<br />
And so the research continues.<br />

<b>UPDATE - 2017 February:</b> Barbara Brackman posted some interesting photos of quilts on <a href="http://barbarabrackman.blogspot.com/2017/02/heart-cut-outs.html">her blog</a> today that contain the "shamrock or hearts" appliqué pattern that I have been writing about. </div>
