If you are a quilt and coverlet lover and you can’t get to museums that have good collections, the next best thing is to buy this book. It is a beautiful picture book, (122 color plates & 472 black & white) and fantastic for ideas. As you see the color combinations and wonderful visual effects produced in quilts one hundred and two hundred years old, predating any contemporary art movements, you begin to wonder how could something like this go on for so long completely ignored and separate from any art movements of the time. The only fault I find is that the detail photographs are often blurred and badly cropped.
