The second row is composed of four 3/4 squares of the Battle of the Alamo, set in each corner, also forming a Texas Lone Star. The two Texas Lone Stars appear to be laying against a huge Star of the Alamo. This Star of the Alamo is repeated 28 times around the center square. Each of them represents a State of the Union or a foreign country which lost gallant men during the Battle of the Alamo. A Star of Liberty can be found at the four corners of the quilt because the Alamo is also called the \"Cradle of Texas Liberty.\" The pattern of blue and white triangles found in each of the star points was also used in the border to provide continuity.

She married James Milton Clark in 1898, and the couple had five children. Lorah started her Target quilt when she was sixteen; she used many fabrics that date from the last quarter of the 19th century, which suggests she kept a well-stocked scrap bag. As a young woman, Lorah worked as a seamstress, sewing linings for the coffins her father built in Whitesboro. Later she worked as a nurse and midwife in Saddler and Hopesville, Texas, work she continued throughout her life. Lorah also sewed all the family clothing and tended a vegetable and flower garden. Her granddaughter notes that Lorah Clark often was asked to supply flowers for weddings and funerals, and that she canned and preserved most of the family food. Unfortunately, she suffered a stroke in about 1910. Although she lost her speech and the stroke kept her in bed for several months, she eventually recovered fully. Karey Bresenhan speculates that she may have finished her Target Quilt during this period. Lorah Clark's philosophy of life is reflected in three mottoes she often repeated: \"Where there's a will, there's a way\"; If at first you don't succeed, try, try again\"; and If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well.\"","ReasonsF060":["Art or personal expression"],"QDesignF060b":["Bedding, special occasion"],"PresUseF062":["Keepsake/memento"],"SourceMatF063":["Sewing scraps"],"TopSourceF064":["Original to maker"],"ExhibitListF067a":"One of 62 Texas quilts exhibited in “Lone Stars: A Legacy of Texas Quilts, 1836-1936,” Texas State Capitol Rotunda, Austin, Texas, April 19-21, 1986.","OtherSourceMat":"Texas Sesquicentennial Quilt Association’s Texas Quilt Search Archives","RelItemsF088a":"Bresenhan, Karoline Patterson and Nancy O'Bryant Puentes, Lone Stars: A Legacy of Texas Quilts, Vol. 1, 1836-1936 (Austin: University of Texas Press), p. 126-127.","OwnershipF082":"Private","OwnerNameF082a":"Dorris Peeler Saunders","OwnerStateF086":"Texas (TX)","OwnerCountryF086b":["United States"],"SourceInfoF088b":"Texas Sesquicentennial Quilt Association's Texas Quilt Search Archives","DateObtainedF088c":"1983-1985","MaidenF097b":"Sasser, Lorah","GenderF098":["Female"],"BirthDateF099":"12/16/1879","BirthplaceCityF098a":"Whitesboro, Grayson County","BirthplaceStateF098b":"Texas","BirthplaceCountryF098d":"United States","MarriageF099b":"1898","DeathF100":"02/07/1954","OccupationF104":"homemaker, nurse, seamstress","EnviroF104c":["Rural"],"SpouseF113":"Clark, James Milton","OccupationF115":"Justice of the Peace","NoChildF116":"5","NoFemF116a":"at least 2","LearnedToQuiltF117":["Self-Taught"],"WhenQuiltF118":["Age 11-19"],"WhyQuiltF119":["Necessity","Pleasure"],"photocredit079a1":"Sharon Risedorph","DateF079_era":"CE","DateF079":1984,"AccessF080":"Restricted","HolderF080a":"Assistant Director Winedale","ReposFile":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/25-21-13/TexasWinedale-a0a0q6-a_6589.jpg"],"Detail 1":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/25-21-13/4F-88-10D-detail.jpg"],"Detail 1 Caption":"detail","verify":"yes","verifiedby":"Adams, Katherine J.","dateverified":"2007-08-22","dateverified_era":"CE","Pattern":"TARGET QUILT","Maker":"[\"CLARK, LORAH SASSER\"]","Date":"1901-1929","Contributing Institutions":"MATRIX: Center for Humane Arts, Letters and Social Sciences Online at Michigan State University, Michigan State University Museum, Alliance For American Quilts","Publisher":"Quilt Index","Resource Type":"StillImage","function":"Image - medium display (250-550 pixels)","file medium":"image","file format":"jpeg","InvenNumF075":"tqs_0052.jpg","ImageConF075a":"whole quilt","ImageTypeF076":"Color","SourceF077":"positive/transparency","CreditLineF080b":"Winedale","CopyRestF080c":"Winedale\r\nP.O.

When the quiltmaker's oldest daughter Ola Mae married, her friends in the Kirvin Community also made her a quilt.","ReasonsF060":["Gift or presentation"],"QDesignF060b":["Bedding, special occasion"],"OtherQDesignF061a":"never washed, rarely used","PresUseF062":["Keepsake/memento"],"SourceMatF063":["Unknown"],"TopSourceF064":["Public domain/traditional pattern"],"ExhibitListF067a":"One of 62 Texas quilts exhibited in “Lone Stars: A Legacy of Texas Quilts, 1836-1936,” Texas State Capitol Rotunda, Austin, Texas, April 19-21, 1986.","OtherSourceMat":"Texas Sesquicentennial Quilt Association’s Texas Quilt Search Archives","RelItemsF088a":"Bresenhan, Karoline Patterson and Nancy O'Bryant Puentes, Lone Stars: A Legacy of Texas Quilts, Vol. I, 1836-1936 (Austin: University of Texas Press), p. 90-91.","OwnershipF082":"Private","OwnerNameF082a":"Emmett Frank Hardie","OwnerStateF086":"Texas (TX)","OwnerCountryF086b":["United States"],"SourceInfoF088b":"Texas Sesquicentennial Quilt Association's Texas Quilt Search Archives","DateObtainedF088c":"1983-1985","GenderF098":["Group"],"NameGroupF120":"Kirvin Community","LocGroupF121":"Kirvin, Texas","photocredit079a1":"Sharon Risedorph","DateF079_era":"CE","DateF079":1984,"AccessF080":"Restricted","HolderF080a":"Assistant Director Winedale","ReposFile":["https://kora.quiltindex.org/files/25-21-367/TexasWinedale-a0a0o5-a_6589.jpg"],"verify":"yes","verifiedby":"Adams, Katherine J.","dateverified":"2007-08-20","dateverified_era":"CE","Pattern":"SUNFLOWER","Maker":"KIRVIN COMMUNITY","Date":"1876-1900","Contributing Institutions":"MATRIX: Center for Humane Arts, Letters and Social Sciences Online at Michigan State University, Michigan State University Museum, Alliance For American Quilts","Publisher":"Quilt Index","Resource Type":"StillImage","function":"Image - medium display (250-550 pixels)","file medium":"image","file format":"jpeg","InvenNumF075":"tqs_0034.jpg","ImageConF075a":"whole quilt","ImageTypeF076":"Color","SourceF077":"positive/transparency","CreditLineF080b":"Winedale","CopyRestF080c":"Winedale\r\nP.O.

Mrs. Parkey lived in a dugout while the family built a brick house. The family was very successful over the years: by 1900 the family owned 5,000 acres; by 1939 their ranch had grown to 30,000 acres, and by 1957 the Parkey family owned three ranches in three Texas counties: Archer, Baylor, and Erath.

Once Mrs. Stanfield added all the names to this quilt, she donated it to the Red Cross to be sold at auction. The high bidder was a Dr. Parnell, who then returned the quilt to Mrs. Stanfield in appreciation for her work. When Dr. Parnell learned that Mrs. Stanfield was a seamstress he asked her to do sewing for his wife. Her skills at turning the doctor's cuffs and collars led her into tailoring for \"dozens of professional men, including a federal judge for more than twenty years.\" She did all her work on a Singer Treadle Machine. When the machine was later converted with a electric motor she claimed it \"slowed her down.\" Mrs. Stanfield's sewing skills saw her four children through high school and one through college. Her youngest son and owner of this Red Cross quilt remembers being one of the best dressed boys in school because of the clothes his mother sewed for him--he wore his first store-bought tie and shirt on the day he graduated from high school. Anna Clare and her husband George Washington Stanfield raised four children and for a time ran a general store in Gorman, Texas.

Milton, a former Alabama state senator, settled his family on String Prairie in Burleson, now Lee, County, near Lexington. This land is still in the family. The family owned twenty slaves at the time of Milton's death in 1861. All the sons fought in the Confederate army during the Civil War; after Reconstruction, one son, John, served in the Texas Legislature.
