Hearts and hands the influence of women & quilts on American society

This volume presents nineteenth-century American life as it was experienced and recorded by women with photograph-laden pages. The century's great movements and events are explored through the eyes of quilters. They tell the story of how women used quilts not only as bed coverings, but as mementos of their friends, artistic expressions in bleak lives, political commentary when they didn't have the vote, fund raising, and slogan flags.
