Dedication

We lovingly dedicate this collection to our mothers, Irene Alexander and Betty LaFosse; and to our sisters, Sally Acomb, Susan LaFosse, and Mary Silsbe. We grew up watching them craft, sew, quilt, crochet, and even make jewelry. As a child, I watched my mom, Irene, inspect bolts of woolen fabrics and blends, draping them over her arm, imagining the look and feel of a finished garment. Her sense of style and attention to quality also influenced my siblings: Sally’s sense of color and composition is evident in her prize-winning art quilts. Mary’s love for elegant jewelry lead her to design what she envisioned, but could not find in the stores, and so she became an expert at silver wire wrapping.
