grandmother's choice--with Barbara Brackman

I am joining Barbara Brackman's block-of-the-week history lesson recalling the fight for women's rights.
http://grandmotherschoice.blogspot.com/
Her series is named Grandmother's Choice.
It is aptly named for my endeavor, as my two grandmothers were able to vote in the first election open to women in 1920.
Fabrics: I am using a great odd green to commemorate my grandmothers' work on their farms. I will be using recycled plaid shirts honoring their raising their families during the depression.
This week the block is Grandmother's Choice.

These are my grandparents' wedding pictures. Both couples were married in 1920, the year women were given the vote!
They were farmers in Sioux County, Iowa.
