In this unique and beautiful book from quilt extraordinaire Carolyn Forster, explore and celebrate the incredible designs created by America's quiltmakers during the 1930s by making 10 quilts of your own, all inspired by the period's techniques, motifs and colorways.

A small historical chapter sets the scene, describing the fascinating and tumultuous backdrop of the quilts and their makers.
