Product Description
Every quilt has a story, and quiltmakers everywhere are connected to each other by threads of common experience. Spellbinding entries are woven from the journal of a nineteenth century quiltmaker into this book of traditional quilts. Over a dozen projects. AUTHORBIO: Barbara made her first quilt in 1969 for her first child, but it was in 1982 that she became a dedicated quilter. She has had several years of in-depth study of quilt history, design, and techniques with both traditional and non-traditional quilt teachers. As a member of two quilt guilds, she is involved in all phases of quilting. Her quilts are consistent award winners and have been exhibited nationally. REVIEW: Easy piecing methods, clear cutting charts, and excellent graphics enhance the book.

About the Author
Since early childhood, Barbara Dieges has been working with threads and fabrics. Her grandmother and aunts always found ways to keep her little hands busy with needlework. After graduating from college, Barbara taught kindergarten before starting her family. While raising three children, she designed for Bucilla Yarn and developed her own line of stitchery kits. She taught creative stitchery, cross-stitch, and needlepoint at local needlework shops and various parks and recreation centers. Barbara made her first quilt in 1969 for her first child, but it was in 1982 that she became a dedicated quilter. She has had several years of in-depth study of quilt history, design, and techniques with both traditional and non-traditional quilt teachers. As a member of two quilt guilds, she is involved in all phases of quilting. Her quilts are consistent award winners and have been exhibited nationally. Even though she travels to teach and lecture nationally, she still takes time to share her expertise with local shops and guilds.
