Whimsies and Whynots: A Playful Approach to Quiltmaking
Although the author doesn't say so, one suspects that she doesn't spend a lot of time watching the tube. She is having too much fun creating those funny, inspiring, offbeat quilts commonly referred to as "folk art." This book is primarily a gallery of her own distinctive quilts and the stories behind them. It also provides gentle guidelines?she calls them "quilt recipes"?for developing a theme for your quilt, choosing colors and materials, and embellishing the finished quilt. Warmly recommended for textile collections.Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
