Pattern Research

I have very limited sources to research the pattern other than the internet. A great book I own is the "Red & White American Redwork Quilts" from Deborah Harding (ISBN 0-8478-2244-3)". Here I found quite a few of the nursery rhyme e.g. "Mother Goose" pattern Jayne's and Barb's grandmother used for her quilt.



According to Deborah Harding's book the nursery rhyme pattern originally are from the pre-stamped blocks series-A and series-D sold by the "Victoria Quilt Block Company". However, while retracing the pattern I found too many little differences between the blocks and the "original", therefore I doubt Jayne's and Barb's grandmother used the pre-stamped fabric blocks. Maybe she traced them from a cataloque or another quilt...
