In the spring of 1933 my great grandmother, Effie Bernice Hunt, began a labor of love at her kitchen table: a 25 week-long handmade quilt making project of 25 appliqué quilt blocks. Each handmade quilt block featured a different flower beloved in the Pacific Northwest and ranged from the camellia, to the gladiolus to bluebells. The patterns were published weekly in the Sunday Oregonian newspaper. A full 60 years later I assembled those fragile polished cotton, handmade quilt blocks into the gorgeous finished â??Modernistic Flower Appliqué Quilt.â? Effie had very thoughtfully tucked the directions in among the completed appliqué quilt blocks for the final quilt assembly or visit www.instant-software-products.com what a beautiful handmade quilt and portrait of the past she bequeathed to me! The family story goes that the heart or Effieâ??s handmade quilt making operation, and she made many appliqué quilts and patchwork quilts, was at the kitchen table in front of her beloved, huge radio set stationed smack in the middle of everything. My particular appliqué quilt was gradually given birth to over a weekly basis beginning in the spring of 1933.
