Complete, photo-filled instructions explain how to make yesterday's quilts with today's fabrics, techniques, and materials. The projects have been expertly chosen by one of the world's leading authors, publishers, and lecturers on the history of needlework. Among her selections: Chimney Sweep Variation, developed by quilters with only small pieces of fabric available; the Double Wedding Ring, a gift quilt from the 1820s; and Jacob's Ladder, another pattern drawn from the farm home scrap basket.
