Best-selling author Laurie Aaron Hird of The Farmer's Wife Sampler
Quilt shares the next installment of this beloved series.
A few years before Ada Melville Shaw's death in 1937, she wrote--and
The Farmer's Wife magazine published--a seven-part series of articles
about her homesteading adventures. It is this series of articles that
come to life in The Farmer's Wife Homestead Medallion Quilt.
Master of traditional quilting, Laurie Aaron Hird has used Ada's
writings to inspire the 120 classic quilt blocks that surround a
stunning center medallion. Full instructions for sewing this queen-sized
sampler quilt, featuring 64 six-inch and 56 eight-inch blocks, are
included.
The Farmer's Wife Homestead Medallion Quilt templates for
paper-piecing and rotary cutting are provided in a ready-to-print,
easy-to-download PDF, available through url provided.
Travel back with Laurie and Ada to 1910s Montana where a homesteading
pioneer woman inspired a contemporary quilt for the modern age.
