A wonderful showcase of quilts and quilters!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I think what attracts me to quilting (or at least the IDEA of quilting, since I dont' quilt) is its history and tradition, and the stories of the women who used quilting as a creative outlet. The quilts, and women, showcased here represent a real diversity - from Eliza's 1833 quilt and the "Feathered Star" pattern quilt made in 1847 to more contemporary pieces including a gorgeous "Crane" design and an incredibly complicated and unusual " Groucho Marx Memorial" quilt from 1977! Great photos and interesting stories. Not a "how to" but a "why to" book!
