New Book: Emporia Rose by Brackman & Menaugh

Barbara & Karla have a new book coming out in June, 2014

Emporia Rose:
Applique Quilts

The book is based on a sampler of designs popular in Emporia
in the 1930s with Rose Kretsinger, Charlotte Whitehill and others.

The sampler Emporia Rose features six blocks
and a border of feathers.

There are directions for full size quilts,
wall quilts



and small projects like this table runner

and wool pincushions.


Plus a little Kansas history. Here's Emporia a century ago.

Karla's mom made a sampler in red and green

Here's a link to a preview:
