DOLORES A HINSON
Dolores Hinson was an avid and very organized collector of vintage and antique quilt patterns. The organized was very important, as she was the author of a great many articles for Tower Press(including a long-running column in "Popular Needlework") and provided them with a great amount of content for those of their magazines that carried quilt patterns. Her collection is one of the most famous, and for good reason.
I have not started listing all the magazine articles yet, as I have not finished cataloging what I was able to haul back from Kansas of my mother's collection. If you need this information, you can go through the magazine catalogs and use the search technique I give instructions for to check for her articles.
Anyone with more information to share, corrections to make, or has books and magazines to donate or sell, can contact me
