My great grandmother Nannie Harvey, 1950s, standing in the garden which is still beautiful today. |
There isn't any quilting in my life at the moment. I've finished writing The History of the Harvey Cottage. It has 85 pages and over 100 photographs and maps.This particular adventure began in 2005, and the completed manuscript is now in the hands of a friend who will proofread it for me. Soon it will go to the printer and become a real book for the members of my family to read.
The cottage property was purchased by my great grandparents in 1927 and has been in the family ever since. It is a place that has much influence on who I have become; and inspired many quilts along the way.
In my research, I found this photo of my great grandmother standing in the garden that adjoined the cottage. Her name was Nancy Jane Culbertson 1870-1959. She was very gentle with her great grandchildren, but she never smiled! I will always treasure this picture of her. Oh yes, she possibly is the maker of the red and green tulip quilt which I am still restoring.
