A request for a pattern

Dear Mrs. Gasperik:

I want to tell you how beautiful the quilt was that you showed at the State Fair.

I have twin sons who will soon have to enter the Armed Services and I have been wanting a nice quilt pattern for them. I made my daughter a “Parasol Doll” quilt but never found a pattern I thought they would like. Is this pattern a “family” one or is it a packet which I could buy if I knew the name or where you bought it? I thought I would work on it while they are in service + between tears.

I would appreciate knowing about the patterns if you care to give the information.

Thank you
Mrs. Carlton Schumacher
