Description
|
|
|
|
A patchwork as rich with history as any well-worn quilt, this anthology collects the stories whose traces are found in so many quilts—tales of making do and creating beauty out of scraps, of starting anew and passing down a legacy stitched with the lore of generations, heavily illustrated with photographs, paintings, and vintage ads and pattern books. Here are historical meditations from quilting authority Merikay Waldvogel and novelist Sandra Dallas, hilarious pieces on quilting obsessions from humorists Ami Simms and Lisa Boyer, and a charming essay about passing on quilting knowledge from Quilters Newsletter columnist Helen Kelley.
