"Beautiful antique quilts and a workbook of patterns come together in this lavish photography book for quilters. More than thirty featured quilts from the Wisconsin State Historical Society Collection are displayed in period rooms at Old World Wisconsin, the Society's outdoor museum of German and Scandinavian farmhouses. Patterns and block layouts are provided for replicating more than thirty featured quilts from the Wisconsin State Historical Society. After seeing each of them in true historical context, home sewers will be inspired to create their own versions of the original quilts" --
