 Susie's quilt was made in honor

of the Centennial Celebration for the State of Arizona

Pledge of Allegiance

The lyrics of the song "Arizona"

and

the Arizona State Motto are all 

hand quilted into the sashing.

 Carpentry Star Variation

Shown by Doris Farnsworth:

"I copied this quilt from an old quilt top

that my mother found in the attic

of a home in Illinois.

The old quilt top must have been

80-100 years old."

The Pumpkin Patch

This was Sigrid's first experience 

with wool applique and wool dying

As an experiment, she used Kool Aid to dye the wool.
