Format: Paperback
This book gives a clear, rhyming explanation of the history of quilting in America and how it has changed. The artwork is a fun combination of real quilt photos and hand-drawn images. I bought this for *my mom* to read to her grandkids, in the hopes that it will open doors for her to talk about our own family's quilting history. Quilting was an important part of the history of American women and I'm delighted that this book keeps that history alive for kids today.

I am an avid quiltmaker, especially of children's quilts and doll quilts. This gem of a book is a great gift to accompany a quilt you make for anyone, especially kids. It is a great way to explain and share your passion for quilts and quiltmaking. The text is in rhyme and quite charming in and of itself -- but more important, the authors show-and-tell the history of quilting with very accruate facts and details. It tells the story of how quilts warm not only the body but also our souls! And if you a quiltmaker, watch out: the last line of the book will really get you....

This is the best quilting book I have ever read. It explains how quilts are made so that kids and adults can actually understand it. There are pictures of real quilts inside, and I have seen some patterns that I can't wait to try. My kids love it too. This book was not only fun to read, but I actually learned helpfull stuff too. IT is a must read!

I enjoyed sharing this book with several classes of Kdg - 3rd grade students. They sat still to listen to it, with breaks to look at my quilt examples. It's a good way to compare the old methods of quilting with the new. A nice cadence to the words. wonderful photos of real quilts mixed in with drawings. Many common quilt desings are named. My girls and I enjoy this book.
