SUMMARY- I ordered this off of www.Paperbackswap.com and ended up with a signed copy by the author! The author has an easy to understand preference for applique but didn't ignore patchwork completely. You get a lovely assortment of patterns in this book along with a tour of historic sites that show off antique quilts in their original settings. Overall I was very pleased with this book and happy a was able to snag a copy of it.
