The American quilt : a history of cloth and comfort, 1750-1950

The most important, comprehensive, and sumptuously illustrated addition to the literature of quilting since Quilts in America. Most of the book's 250 stunning full-color quilts have never before been published. With them as a reference, Kiracofe shows us how to read a vocabulary of fabrics, dyes, patterns, and other clues to put quilts in their social and cultural context. Full-color photographs.

  • "Le quilt est étroitement lié à l'histoire des femmes américaines, il fut pendant 200 ans leur véritable mode d'expression artistique. Réalisé de façon collective, il participait aux moments forts de leur existence: naissance, mariage, mortalité. Cet ouvrage témoigne de l'enracinement de cet art aux Etats-Unis, de sa diversité, et comment il est devenu un artisanat authentique."
  • "Explores how quilts have been used throughout history to reflect the cultural and social attitudes of the era they were created in, with dozens of examples of American quilts created in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries."
  • "Retrace chronologiquement l'évolution des quilts (dessus de lit piqués ou assemblés), de l'Amérique préindustrielle jusqu'à nos jours, à travers une étude détaillée des motifs et des tissus qui caractérisent chaque période."
