Grandmother's Flower
Garden
Grandmother's
Flower Garden
was popular in the late 19th and
early 20th century.  It was
common during the Depression
era, when quilt making again
became a necessity in many
American homes.  Pieced from
tiny hexagonal patches, this
pattern can make thrifty use of
even the smallest scraps of to
honor Mrs. Estie Norris, a
native of Powder Springs,
Georgia.  She is 92 years old
and has made and donated a
quilt to the Seven Springs
Society Museum, yearly since
1987 to be used in a raffle as a
fund-raiser.  This Quilt Square
was painted by Iia Owens and
is on the west side of The Book
Worm, 4451 Marietta St.,
Powder Springs, Georgia.
