Description:This anthology's 28 stories will delight you--and also introduce the fascinating worlds of quilters in other times and other places. You'll witness ruthless gossips, courtings that nearly go astray, quilters obsessed with securing scraps, and husbands and wives brought together by quilts. Quilts will end up in unexpected places and significantly change lives. Fascinating fiction, these stories also provide important social history.
