| Mrs. Beasley's Quilt This week I was preparing a lesson about the Great Depression. I have this quilt that is circa 1929-1930. After laying it out to take to school to share with my students, Mrs. Beasley jumped on it and looked at me as if she was saying "Momma got me a new blankie" I just couldn't resist the chance to take a picture.

Thank you. The quilt is called "Grandmother's Flower Garden" It was popular during the 1920s to 1940's. This kind is rarely made anymore because of the labor involved. It was made without "blocks" Between the flowers are double rows of hexagon shapes.

| That is such a beautiful quilt. My mom quilts so I can know how much work goes into something that detailed. BTW Mrs. Beasley is adorable and I love her name. Is she named after Mrs. Beasley from Family Affair? She was my favorite doll growing up and I still have her

thank you so much! Yes, Mrs. Beasley was named after Buffy's doll on the TV show Family Affair. I just loved that show too.
