Paper doll quilt on display at Albion District Library
Albion resident Martha Symons-Harris loaned her Paper Dolls quilt to the Albion District Library for February. The eight blocks feature young ladies with a goose, guitar, and heart rain, bordered by pale yellow blocks with a rosebud print. The embroidery took three months. Symons-Harris learned quilting in Alabama and now makes quilts for her grandchildren. The library seeks other fabric artists and has multiple display cases, with contact details and viewing info.
