Shelly Pagliai learnt how to use a sewing machine when she was 8 years old. At the age of 12 she made her first quilt from scraps. Although she never quite finished the quilt she started teaching others to quilt in 1996 and in 1999 Prairie Moon Quilts was born. She now has her own line of original quilt patterns and kits.

September 2016A book inspired by the diary kept by the author's mother, a teenager in the 1950s. She lived in rural Missouri. The principal quilt has nine 18" blocks. The pieced blocks appear to be made with feedsack fabrics. The traditional blocks are framed with scalloped edges and are set on point. Appliqued leaves and flowers surround the central block. There are six more quilts in the same style. The cutting and the assembling insutractions are clear and easy to follow. The whole book is interspersed with extracts from the diaries and family photos
