I love this photo. For so many reasons.
A gathering of women.
Handwork to share.
Turn of the century.
The thing that was the capper for me is the Old Maid's Puzzle quilt block in the hands of the woman at the back of the circle. Our quilt block for this week's Block of the Week project is Old Maid's Puzzle. :-)
A Blessed Sunday to You!
Yes! Old Maid's Puzzle was the first thing I noticed! Cute little baskets in front on the floor ~ for sewing supplies perhaps? And what a cute little handbag on the right. They all look like they are hand sewing their blocks. There was a lady in my quilt group years ago who sewed all her blocks of her full sized Sampler Quilt by hand and then hand quilted it! It would be nice to be part of a group like above. :-)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it fun to find the interesting things in an old photo??
DeleteI will pray you can find a group in your area, Anne. It is such a blessing.
