Stitched Through Time: The Story of Libbie Haylock's Quilts

by Carol Bodensteiner

The Iowa farmhouse I grew up in during the 1950s held both a treasure and a mystery. The treasure is one of unfinished heirloom quilts begun by my grandmother in the early 1900s, when she was a teenager. The mystery is why no one knew about these quilts until after Grandma died. Why she never talked about them. Why she never brought them out to complete and share. Join me as I share the story - if not all the answers to the mystery - of our family's treasure trove of heirloom quilts.
