This early manual is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of all sewing enthusiasts. A concise and detailed study of the art of quilt making accompanied by helpful photographs. 57 plates accompany the text. Contents Include: Preface; Acknowledgment; List of Illustrations; The Background; The Quilters; The Work of the Rural Industries Bureau in Reviving and Developing the Quilting Industry; How Quilts are Made; The Materials; The Patterns; The Uses of Quilting; The Future of Traditional Quiltmaking; Appendix: References to Quilting from the Fifteenth to the Eighteenth Century; Old Joe, the Northumberland Quilter, circa 1745-1825; Quilters' Earnings; and an Index. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
