Title

Blatter Home and Holly, 1917

Description

Handmade quilt square which depicts Blatter home and surrounding holly trees as part of the 15-panel Heritage Quilt of Cedar Mill. Description from accompanying pamphlet: BLOCK 14 BLATTER HOME AND HOLLY By Sue Jones. This home built in 1917 is on the south side overlooking Barnes Road near Leahy Road. On each side stands holly planted in 1917 from cuttings taken from the first trees in Oregon. The Failing family of Portland had shipped round the horn two female and one male English Green Holly trees, parents of the ones pictured. The many holly orchards nearby are important to the economy of our area.
