Pat's Westering Women


Pat Styring sent a photo of her finished Westering Women sampler.
She added some free-form floral applique---
Broderie Perse---to the blocks.

And stitched the name of each block in the sashing.


She says:
"Each month I looked forward to the new block. Had 'Road to California' not been the name of the last block I might have had space for 'Westering Women' on the front too. Thanks for the fun of thinking about my Nebraska Pioneer ancestors as I sewed."

The words are appliqued by machine with
raw edges....

Something Pat seems to be quite good at.

Love it!

  2. This is really a beatiful hand work!
    I haven't quilted mine yet, still working in other projects that could have been already finished.
    Good job, Pat!
