Mary Leathea Pettway

A Quilter's Life

What a blessing to spend time with Mary Leathea Pettway. When I interviewed Tangular Irby, she told me about her aunt that is such a great influence in her life and she even used some of her aunt’s quotes in the book she wrote: Pearl and Her Gee’s Bend Quilt! If you haven’t had a chance to listen to my interview with Tangular, you’ll want to find it and hear her story. In this episode with Mary Leathea I enjoyed the great wisdom she has to share in such a humble way. With Mary Leathea being a Gee's Bend Quilter, I am honored to be allowed to post pictures of her quilts. And this one on a doll bed is so adorable! Thanks to Tangular Irby for helping me to connect to Mary Leathea!
