The book profiles more than forty of the quilting world’s most influential people—from early twentieth-century quilt designer Ruby McKim to quilt curator Jonathan Holstein to contemporary art quilter Nancy Crow. Lavishly illustrated with one hundred glorious color photographs of their quilts, plus historical photographs, ads, and pattern booklets, The Quilters Hall of Fame is essential for every quilter’s bookshelf.

Contraportada:

Masterpiece quilts. Master quilters. Founded in 1979, the Quilters Hall of Fame celebrates those who have made outstanding contributions to the world of quilting—quilters, authors, historians, and other quilt enthusiasts. Inductees include Carrie Hall, Marie Webster, Cuesta Ray Benberry, Georgia Bonesteel, Barbara Brackman, Helen Kelley, and many more. The organization is housed in Marie Webster’s beautiful colonial revival home in Marion, Indiana, which has been designated a Landmark of Women’s History by the National Park Service. This book features 42 of these quilting legends who have shaped the art—from early twentieth-century quilt designer Ruby McKim to quilt curator Jonathan Holstein to contemporary art quilter Nancy Crow. Accompanying these profiles, you’ll find a showcase of great quilts with glorious color photographs of the artists’ work as well as historical and current snapshots of their lives.
