There is an old building along the 55 (freeway) and I'm pretty sure it used to be a sugar beet factory. Instead of tearing it down like they do nearly every old building here, I think they turned it into a hotel. I'll have to google it and see what ic an find out.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10891955451425764506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579333661679660473.post-14747864599346214322009-09-09T20:26:24.211-07:002009-09-09T20:26:24.211-07:00i loved reading your post, Miri, i was totally eng...i loved reading your post, Miri, i was totally engrossed..i love those sweet little sugar sacks!..what a sweet quilt/coverlet..i love the design and i look forward to seeing your stitchery :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579333661679660473.post-3699051742305747162009-09-09T19:29:19.200-07:002009-09-09T19:29:19.200-07:00The 'back' story is fascinating and the co...The 'back' story is fascinating and the coverlet is amazing and my word verification is 'patcha' appropriate for a quilt post, huh!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03896397905655488182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579333661679660473.post-80281728497533008722009-09-09T19:24:12.775-07:002009-09-09T19:24:12.775-07:00I just love your quilt and what a great e-bay buy!...I just love your quilt and what a great e-bay buy!
