Program Description

Event Details

Artifacts handed down from our ancestors can often tell us a great deal about them if we take the time to read the clues they provide and dig deeper. Carolyn Sherman will share her story of a 40-year quest to find the maker of a Victorian crazy quilt that she inherited. She will talk about the amazing quiltmaker as well as the genealogical resources that she used in her search. If you are fascinated by quilting, embroidery, or genealogy, you won’t want to miss this program!
