I came across this picture in an old book of US presidents. It was copyrighted in 1924. I was hoping to find a picture of Abe to copy for my Civil War Diary Quilt, so it was a lucky find! There are a couple blocks in the book that have his picture in them. I hope this picture comes out well so that any of you who would like to may also use it. I probably could have found a picture on line, but this one is pretty neat. On another note, the chicken I mentioned in the last post can be boneless or not. I prefer it with bones. I cook it in a gas grill, wrapped in foil with the lid down, for about 45 minutes at around 400 degrees. It is nice and juicy! Who else has an easy recipe to share? I stress EASY!
Thanks for the directions for the chicken---this is doable if I can figure out just where the temp is. (Mine is just low, medium, medium high)
ReplyDeleteI enjoy cooking when it doesn't interfere with my sewing and might be able to come up with something.
I do have a piece of Abraham Lincoln fabric, gift from Rosemary Young. I purchased the book directly from her when it was published. It is one portrait, and you can have it if you like. You can send me a 6" square of red fabric as trade so I can use it in my Nearly Insane quilt. I know I have the portrait fabric here somewhere. Might take me a day to find it though. Just contact me :-)
ReplyDeleteMe again. This made me find the fabric. It has 6 portraits on it, 3 with full framing and 3 with snipped off framing. This is the same fabric used in the quilt and the framing in the print is not a part of the blocks.
