American Quilt Classics: From the Collection of Patricia Cox With Maggi McCormick Gordon (That Patchwork Place)

Rating:
Summary: A showcase that captures a slice of history
Review: Patricia Cox and Maggi Gorden effectively collaborate to present American Quilt Classics, a beautiful, full-color photographic showcase of Patricia's personal collection of more than 300 antique quilts. From an 1820's strippy chintz to quilts made for the Red Cross during World War I and quilts created from feed sacks during the Great Depression, American Quilt Classics is a showcase that captures a slice of history as well as amazing craft patterns. The text describing the known history of individual quilts adds flair to their presentation, and sample quilting projects for the reader are also included. American Quilt Classics is an informative and inspiring book for needlecrafters with a passion for quilts!
