A quilter named Luella Nurse started this quilt in the early 60’s, but died in 1967, before she could finish it. The partial top was given to me in 2007, to complete in her memory. The lavender flowers reminded me of petunias, and in particular “Sweet Petunia”, Bessie Jackson’s hit song from 1927. So I decided to make the quilt about flower songs from yesteryear, songs that we still hear today, and will no doubt still be listening to tomorrow.

This quilt was made from 50 woven neckties belonging to
Mr. Henry Sissons of Guelph. It depicts a stand of maple
trees in autumn, and pays tribute to Mr. Sissons’ second
career tending a maple forest after he retired from office
work. Interfacings were dyed for extra colour, and all
the labels were sewn on the back.
