- Synopsis
- Bess Morgan longs for the day when Pa will come back home to her and Mama in Oregon. He's been on the Oregon Trail bringing settlers out West, and he should have returned more than a month ago. Bess and Mama pass the time waiting for him by singing, quilting, and taking care of the farm, until disaster strikes: Mama is bedridden with swamp fever, and a collector informs them that Pa owes him a hundred dollars. If Bess and Mama don't pay the collector in thirty days, they'll lose their farm! Bess's only hope to raise that kind of money is to win a quilt contest at the upcoming fair. Does her plain Log Cabin quilt have a chance of winning? Or will the farm be lost by the time Pa gets back?
