In appreciation of older quilts

For you this time, we have some interesting stories about quilts—and it is the stories about them that add to their charm and make them treasures. Compliments of Louise Girard we offer you a pattern for a quilt in praise of Women in Canadian History. Definitely an article not to be missed is how to take a quilt pattern and make it uniquely yours. Although you can apply these ideas to any pattern, keep these in mind when you come across an antique quilt whose pattern you like but you would like your quilt to have a more contemporary look. There are also some good articles about quilt collections, appraising quilts and documenting quilts, along with lots of other surprises.
