I am a quilter and also a quilt collector. On many trips to lancaster County I have purchased quilts from Hanna Stoltzfus. I wonder if it was she who presented the quilt to President Bush. I would not be surprised!

Could be, but "Stoltzfus" is like "Smith" or "Jones" in the Amish country. For example, I bought my shed from Stoltzfus Woodworking in Leola (which is near Lancaster). There's also a Stoltzfus restaurant nearby, a Stoltzfus insurance agency, etc. etc...

Nah, it's about 10 times Smith or Jones.

I go through Lancaster County a dozen times a year; look at the mailboxes; some absurd % are "Stoltzfus."
