Summary from inside the book:
The lively art of patchwork has had a unique claim upon our national affections since the first settlers arrived on American shores, eager to piece together a new life for themselves from the resources close at hand. And American patchwork design is as rich and varied–as interesting and imaginative–as the people who've practiced this craft from colonial times to the present. In AMERICAN PATCHWORK AND QUILTING you will be introduced to the best in traditional patchwork and quilting and invited to explore many of the new designs and innovative techniques that have helped to keep this time-honored craft a vital part of the American folk art tradition.
