promise to start a new life, while leaving behind her home &

Piecing the Trail to Kansas
Piecing the Trail to Kansas - a quilters journal #1 is the
first in a new series of quilt patterns or books created from my
interest in antique quilts & the stories of the women who made
them. Conceived as a block-of-the-month (or chapter-a-month)
quilt program, the story is about life on the Kansas prairie as
seen through the eyes of a quilter, Lily Marie Hutchins. We
introduce Lily & her family as they follow the wagon trains west
from their home in Kentucky to homestead the wild prairie in the
Kansas Territory during the 1850's.
