This review is from: Enduring Grace: Quilts from the Shelburne Museum Collection (With Quilt Instructions by Francie Hoffhine Quinn) (Paperback)
Enduring Grace is such a fitting title for this lovely book. It features quilts from the Shelburne Vt Museum
collection. It is a wonderful history of Textiles and Quilts from Colonial America to the The new Century. The photos are the best and the quilts featured are spectacular. This book also includes five projects of which I am doing the Sarah Johnson quilt as a family heirloom.
