Description
|
|
|
|
Through the stories of 98 quilts and the women and families who made them, this visual history chronicles the rich tradition of quilting in Wisconsin, from its statehood in 1848 through the mid-20th century. Each quilt, whether traditional or innovative, is a testament to creativity and perseverance and reflects the common experiences of a young country as it was being settled by waves of immigrants, and then as it matured through war, economic depression, and the everyday lives of its citizens. Beautifully illustrated with whole quilts, closeups, and family photos, the book is also an inspiration source for quilters, and this second edition includes eight patterns and blocks taken from historical quilts.
