Description:The Farmer's Wife Pony Club Quilt is a large queen measuring 96" x 105". There are ninety traditional 8" blocks, many of which are rarely seen in modern quilt books. Contemporary and novelty fabrics were used, with solid gray cornerstones and a black print for the sashing and border. It was beautifully long-arm quilted by Nell Coons of Verona, Wisconsin. The Farmer's Wife Pony Club Sampler Quilt book has 320 beautiful pages in an 8" x 8" format. The first two-thirds of the book has letters from the children, one or two photographs of each child with their pony, and a picture of the child's quilt block. The last third of the book has complete assembly diagrams for each block.In 1907 the Webb Publishing Company of St. Paul, Minnesota, created The Farmer's Wife Pony Club. They invited children to join and compete for prizes by selling subscriptions to The Farmer's Wife magazine. The prizes ranged from cameras to rifles, but the grand prize was a Shetland pony with saddle, bridle and often a carriage. To satisfy skeptics who doubted a child would, indeed receive a pony, the editors asked the winners to send photographs of themselves and their ponies. Thankfully, many of the children also sent thank you letters along with their photographs. These endearing, poignant, and sometimes hilarious, letters provide a unique window into the lives of children in the early years of the 20th century.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
