Summary: museum quilts
Comment: Nine well-balanced, beautiful museum quilts from Amish and Mennonite origin are used as a backbone for the book. They are mostly examples of block patterns, favored by American patchwork-quilt makers. This due to the format, easy to handle and store, of the patchwork blocks that were assembled and quilted only at the end of the project. After explaining and examining the way the old quilt is composed an instruction is included how to duplicate them. Each piece is also followed by suggestions how to alter the original block by using different fabrics, colors, lay-out...
The last chapter explains the basic techniques used, but don't expect elaborate instructions. The main strength of the book is to inspire you, to stimulate you to develop your own quilts by starting from ancient examples.
