Book excerpt: "Historically, societies of women gathering together for the purpose of quiltmaking have been referred to as quiltings, frolicks and bees. This book presents actual American newspaper articles about this needlework activity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Inscribed with hundreds of people's names including makers of the quilt blocks, these quilts are known as "signature quilts" and they reflect the cultural service the quilts had when first made and today as historical records. Family, patriotic, community and religious themes are represented among these highly cherished textile documents."--Publisher's description.

Download or read book The 1903 Jackson Corners Signature Quilt written by Sarah K. Hermans and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2010 an old, stained muslin sheet made of 42 blocks sewn together, many covered in embroidered names, was passed down five generations of the Hermans family (originally from Academy Hill Road in the hamlet of Jackson Corners, Town of Milan, Dutchess County). By the time it found its way to the 21st century, all record of why or by whom the homely quilt was made was believed lost. Besides the 260 names on the quilt, many of which belong to families still in the area, there was one obvious clue, the date 1903 on one of the blocks.The author spent a decade researching these people and the place they called home-a hamlet only a town over from her own home. What resulted was not only a pleasant and enriching pastime, but an examination of this rural area and its inhabitants at the turn of the 20th century when the "simple" life was coming to an end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For crafters “looking for patterns based on ethnic designs, modern quilters who love blocks with asymmetry and anyone who loves bright, exciting quilts!” (Sleeping Dog Quilts) Bold, vibrant, striking—and amazingly easy to make! This collection of 15 modern quilts draws on handmade crafts from India, the American South, and Africa to create a style that’s at once traditional and contemporary, artistic and practical. A simple stack, cut, shuffle, and stitch technique makes the sewing fun for quilters of any level, and also makes every quilt a one-of-a-kind creation. No two are ever alike! The author provides alternate settings, plus an inspiring photo gallery of the crafts that shaped her style. Use these projects to enrich your quilting by bringing in textures, patterns, and colors from around the world. “An inspired designer . . . The 15 free form block projects featured in this book are a celebration of this ‘melting pot,’ and brim with ideas. The book is accompanied, refreshingly, with photographs illustrating some of the inspirations and stories behind the projects, and it’s a pleasure to see how Sujata has translated them into works of quilted excellence.” —Popular Patchwork “A graphic designer and quilter, she finds inspiration all over the world—in the quilts from Gee’s Bend, the Indian godharis and the bold, colorful fabrics from Africa . . . A colorful and inspiring book. Highly recommended!” —Down Under Quilts Magazine “Sujata Shah takes a different look at traditional blocks and adds her interpretation with 15 simple and fun free-form block projects.” —McCall’s Quick Quilt

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary works honoring the role of women and quilting in history—from Harriet Beecher Stowe, Joyce Carol Oates, Alice Walker, Sharyn McCrumb, and others. This collection of stories, plays, poems, and songs featuring the making of quilts—written from 1845 to the present, mainly by American women—documents women’s literary history. Featuring the work of Bobbie Ann Mason, Joyce Carol Oates, Alice Walker, Sharyn McCrumb, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Marge Piercy, Adrienne Rich, and many others, Quilt Stories is a colorful literary album of stories, poems, and plays that celebrate quilting as a pattern in women’s history. These stories—grouped under the themes of memory, courtship, struggle, mystery, and wisdom—reflect the importance of quilting in the lives of American women, not only as a practical craft and a creative outlet, but also as an integral part of the social community. “The 28 works included in Quilt Stories restore to women a part of their history and their sense of community, an important service in a present time in which quilting has perhaps become a more private and individual art, though it still serves widely as a medium for social exchange and cooperative endeavor.” —Appalachian Quarterly “Macheski has pieced together a variety of literary fabrics into a unique design which represents women’s struggle for identity in a masculine world.” —Benton, Arkansas Courier “Each writing shares a glimpse of what quilting means to those people who practice the art and how it helps us to see, remember, learn, know and express our feelings.” —Quilt World “An innovative approach to writing the history of women.” —Northwest Ohio Quarterly

The book introduces the technique very thoroughly, so you can clearly understand the difference between traditional piecing and quilting and QAYG. Then there’s a great selection of gorgeous quilts that are sure to appeal to the modern quilter.
