When a breeze hits the tiny, ripe, umbrella shaped seeds of the thistle, thye float upward and are gone forever, where only God and the thistle seed know. It would be easy to believe, however, that angels had something to do with the location. Young Lavinia, who was... only six months ago... part of a loving family of four living on the banks of the Mississippi. But, seemingly in the blink of an eye, Lavinia and her brother were orphans, and found themselves alone in a forest, in a wagon with a lame horse and no idea where they were. The children essentially left the direction up to the horses that eventually found a road, and decided which way to go. Like the seeds of the thistle, the children had no choice but to put down roots, and they could not have chosen a better place than River Bend, Arkansas, even though there were those who were open-mouthed amazed that she carried a gun in her pocket. That gun and her skill with it help to decide her future and taught her that some things are meant to be... whether humans understand them or not.

Share in the creative outpouring a ratty old quilt inspired to craft rustic and earthy projects from a pincushion to a hooked rug. Primitive artist Maggie Bonanomi discovered a great old quilt. She marveled, played and let her mind wander. This book is the result. She’s created an exciting new quilt, which inspired a pile of matching pillows. Her Thistle Down Moon mat and rug designs sprung from memories of summer nights riding bikes with her sister. She’s also designed sewing accessories: a sewing case, pincushion, a wall-hung sewing necessity, a handy pocket and a necklace. Primitive home decorators are not forgotten—besides the quilt and pillows, you’ll find a table runner, a cross-stitch sampler and penny-topped stools. There’s even a multipurpose butcher’s apron. Maggie’s well never runs dry. Enjoy her latest creations, 19 in all.
