This magnificent volume features color photographs of more than 100
quilts crafted in North Carolina between the early nineteenth
century and 1976. Included are chintz applique quilts, intricately
pieced and appliqued quilts, crazy quilts, and examples of
ingenious thrift in quilting with found and salvaged materials.
The quilts were chosen from more than 10,000 that owners brought to
be recorded by the North Carolina Quilt Project during a series of
statewide Quilt Documentation Days in 1985-86. Because the quilts
are privately owned, many have never been seen publicly. The text
presents the lives and times of the quiltmakers, accompanied by
many vintage photographs from family collections. Whether these
women made quilts to pass the time, warm their families, beautify
their lives, or serve as symbols of love and togetherness, they
used their fabric with uncommon artistry and craftsmanship.
