The stories are based on interviews Sayler held with nearly all the women of the church. The book also includes historical anecdotes about the wife of the leader of the colony who settled the area, and from whom many of the present members are descended. The photographs and the stories of joy, struggle, hope, and compassion in Fabric and Patterns remind us of the character-building quality that faith and hard work can provide in our lives. This book will be useful to persons in Women's Studies Programs and others interested in the lives of individual rural church women and the interactions among them. The book is amply illustrated with photographs by the author and by her brother, Warren Deckert.
