Farmer’s Field DaySarah Ottesen & Susan Travis – Farmer’s Daughters Quilts
It all started on a beautiful farm in Iowa when Susan and Sarah were about ten years old. They were bitten by the entrepreneur bug, launching their sweet corn business with a few dozen ears of corn, a red Radio Flyer wagon, and two small signs reading “$1 per dozen! Sweet corn for sale!” Their love for quilting came from their mother, who patiently taught them to piece together their first quilt. Inspired by Sarah’s quilt shop and Susan’s design background, they began creating their own patterns together.
