Default Sara Rhodes Dillow Collection ?

Got a letter from my Mom written in note cards showing quilts from the Sara
Rhodes Dillow Collection. It all relates to the quilt collections at the
University of Nebraska at Lincoln.

Anybody know anything about this book at Amazon? There's no cover and no
review. Apparently there are actually 12 patterns in the book.

Howdy!

From a Sara Rhodes Dillow bio:
Her book, "Repiecing the Past," was written in 1995 and features twelve
of her antique quilts with modern counterparts made by Dillow and others.

Thanks, Sandy. I too had found lots of info about her.

I was curious whether the book was worth buying. I did find it somewhere
for $5. I think I'll chance it!

Got the book -- Repiecing the Past: Patterns for 12 Quilts from the
Collection of Sara Rhodes Dillow. It was worth it! Bought it "used"
and it still has the applique patterns in the back. Shows the
historical quilt then a new quilt to make. There is also a little
blurb about the history quilt. None west of Nebraska however. The
pattern of elongated hexagons is a bit intimidating!
