by Ann Whitford Paul (Author) Jeanette Winter (Illustrator)
Ann Whitford Paul's fascinating text describes twenty-six different quilt patterns, placing each in its historical context. From the Anvil, used to shape horseshoes and farm tools, to the Zigzag, which symbolized the lightning that streaked across the open sky, this is a creative look at a meaningful folk art tradition. Complemented by Jeanette Winter's bold art, this patchwork alphabet is the perfect way to learn about an important period in American history.
