Publisher Description:
A rich collection of colorful quilts gathered from Amish communities. What reviewers say-- A treasury indeed, this book has 179 excellent color photographs of quilts in patterns most favored by Amish women in Ohio, Indiana, and Lancaster and Mifflin Counties in Pennsylvania, before 1940. --American Quilter A chart showing distinctive features of Amish quilts, comparing the color, fabric, and quilting techniques of various communities, is included. Recommended. --Library Journal It's a book to return to often for inspiration and even meditation. --The Chattanooga Times All quilts in the book are shown in color, the quality of which is excellent. That extreme care was observed during photography is evident; even the most intricate quilting design can be clearly seen. A Treasury of Amish Quilts will be a most valuable addition to any quilter's bookshelf.--Creative Quilting
