Betty Ford Smith, a teacher-turned-quilter, is renowned for preserving the traditional “Pine Cone” quilt pattern. She learned this intricate hand-stitched technique from a 92-year-old African American woman named Miss Sue (Arlene Dennis), whose story—along with her own—she documented in the book “Miss Sue and the Pine Cone Quilt.” She also authored “Pinecone Quilts: Keeping Tradition Alive – Learn to Make Your Own Heirloom.” Betty’s quilts have been exhibited in major national museums, including the Smithsonian. The “Pine Cone,” also known as the “Pine Burr,” is created by sewing folded fabric triangles side by side on a base in concentric circles, forming a rich, textured surface.
