Excellent Gift for former Minnesotans

I gave Minnesota Quilts to my sister, who was born and raised in Minnesota, but moved to Australia when she married, and lived there ever since. She has become an excellent quilter, and is also interested in historical information about quilting. She loved this book about Minnesota quilters, which includes pictures of the women and their quilts,as well as historical context for their work. I'd recommend it to anyone who loves quilting.

Minnesota Quilts -- wonderful historical read

What a great book. It was well organized. My only sorrow was that I wish some of the quilts had patterns included because I loved them so much! The photos are wonderful, the history is even better. I definitely give this book a 5-star rating.

Minnesota's beautiful quilt heritage

From the breathtaking cover to the final page, "Minnesota Quilts" is simply marvelous. Many books have been written about state quilt searches; I worked on several of the searches as a photographer and really appreciate the beautiful way the quilts are depicted and displayed.

A remarkable treasury of one-of-a-kind quilts and the stories of the quilters who made them

Greg Winter's Minnesota Quilts: Creating Connections With Our Past is a remarkable treasury of one-of-a-kind quilts and the stories of the quilters who made them. Lee Sandberg's full-color photography throughout reveals each quilt's unique features, from a quilt incorporating pages from an alphabet book to Irish Chain Quilts to cross-stitch quilts and more. The text explores the connections that quilts and quilting brought among individuals, families, and friends, as well as the histories of individual quilts and fascinating vignettes of those who owned the quilts destined to become museum pieces. A beautiful collection and the perfect giftbook for quilters of all skill and experience levels, whether as a source for inspiration or just a breathtaking assembly of style and originality that is most enjoyable to simply page through.
