Summary |
Quilts are a reflection of the people who make, use, and cherish them through the years. John Rice Irwin has personally conducted interviews with hundreds of old time-quiltmakers, some of whom were over one hundred years old. Detailed photographs taken by Pulitzer Prize winner Robin Hood depict the opulent conglomeration of quilts, from the community quilt that Alex Haley and Archie Campbell helped stitch, to the marriage quilt which became known , as the Murder Quilt. |
