"The American Museum & Gardens' collection of over 250 quilts, from the eighteenth to the mid-twentieth century, is the finest of its type in Europe and the equal of many premier collections in the USA. More than 50 quilts and their unique stories are featured here, beautifully illustrated with stunning photography that celebrates the skill and artistry of these textiles. The selection of much-loved favourites as well as new acquisitions that have never been published before includes early whole-cloth quilts, pieced and appliquéd work, Hawaiian and Amish quilts, and the African American quilts of Gee's Bend. The accompanying introductory essay describes how this remarkable Museum was established and the world-class quilt collection was formed." -- BOOK JACKETContext
