Louisa May Alcott: Quilts of Her Life, Her Work, Her Heart
Authored by quilt historian Terry Clothier Thompson, this book looks at the Civil War through the eyes of Louisa May Alcott. Louisa is best known for writing children's stories and Little Women, but she was also very involved with the anti-slavery movement, rights for women, and served as a Civil War nurse. The heart of the book is the "Louisa" quilt. In this quilt there are nine "cameo" blocks that tell the story of Louisa and her family's life in New England. Also, as part of the quilt, there are six pieced blocks from the Civil War era that can be used to make soldiers quilts. Along with the "Louisa" quilt, the book contains patterns for three authentic soliders quilts and another magnificent appliqued quilt called "Concord, Mass".
Product Details: Softcover, Color, 9" x 11", 88 pages.

Dear Jane
Calling all lovers of quilts, patterns and quilt history! In Dear Jane, a twentieth century quilting teacher meets a nineteenth century quiltmaker. Brenda Manges Papadakis has lovingly recreated the two hundred twenty five patterns from the celebrated Jane A. Blakely Stickle quilt. Accompanying the patterns are a remarkable series of letters from Brenda to Jane, drawing us into the historical context of Jane's achievement and connecting her to our quilting lives today. Among the patterns and letters you will find a dozen quilts from the 1990's, all inspired by Jane's supreme example of quiltmaking artistry in 1863. Brenda's meticulous research has been a devoted labor of love, not only for a splendid quilt but also for the woman who created it.

You will also be kept delightfully busy with the large collection of block which challenge you to create your own Baby Jane quilt.

Portable Patchwork
by Donna Lynn Thomas for The Kansas City Star Co.
No longer does the quilter feel like she has to be shut away from everyone in her sewing room and chained to her sewing machine in order to make a quilt. No matter what is going on or where she is, today's busy quilter can take her patchwork with her! Author Donna Thomas gives step-by-step instructions on integrating hand and machine piecing skills in this must-have book for busy quilters. Quilters are shown how to convert skills that are generally used only for machine piecing into hand piecing techniques. The quilter can now chain piece, make folded corners, and use her rotary cutter even while piecing by hand! Beautiful quilts such as St. Louis Nosegay, Simple Stars and Mariner's Compass are included. The quilt patterns are graded by the level of difficulty with one spool being the easiest and three spools indicating the most difficult. Fourteen patterns are given.
Product Details: Softcover, Color Photos/Illus, 9 1/2" x 11", 128 pages.
