FIC
DALLAS, S.
"Persian pickle," another name for paisley, refers to fabric shared by the members of a quilting club in Depression-ear Harleyville, Kansas. One member, Queenie Bean, lonely after her best friend moves away, hopes to become best friends with city girl Rita, brought home by her new husband, in hopes of publishing a hot story. Rita's investigation leads, however, to a surprising revelation.
An enjoyable exploration of period character. Not just for quilters!
