By Maria O'Keefe

By Darleen Hopkins

From the August 2017 issue

“American Gothic” by Grant Wood was painted in 1930, however, the print on the woman’s apron is indicative of the 19th century. The farm women of the 19th century were true artists, turning fabric scraps into amazing and useful household items.
