Cuesta Benberry held a special place in the quilting world…researcher, author, encourager, advocate.  Recently she died and one of the most complete articles I’ve read about her life is Cuesta Benberry, 83, Scholar of Quilts & Author, by Patricia Sullivan, at WashingtonPost.com. 
            There are numerous other articles around the blogosphere that commemmorate Cuesta Benberry and relate her accomplishments and the encouragement she gave quilters.
 Here you’ll find a collection of quilting stories compiled by Cuesta Benberry and Carol Pinney Crabb.
