World-renowned quilter Nancy Crow's work is presented for a general audience for the first time in this volume. Divided into nine major quilt series, the book shows not only the diversity and dynamism of Crow's work, but also many of the artifacts and places that inspired her. With excerpts from her journals and sketch books combined with side panels that track important events in her life, this book also gives insight into how Crow's thinking and art evolved after major events in her life. Many of the featured quilts have never before been photographed.<br />

NANCY CROW is considered the world's foremost art quilter, whose work has been instrumental in promoting quiltmaking from traditional craft to an art medium in its own right. Her quilts are on permanent display at several world-class art museums, including The Smithsonian Institute, The American Craft Museum, and The Museum of American Folk Art. From New York to Strasbourg to London to Tokyo, her quilts have been included in almost every major exhibition of quilt art over the last twenty years. She is a Fellow of the American Crafts Council, a member of the Quilters' Hall of Fame, and a recipient of the prestigious National Living Treasure Award. Crow's previous books include Nancy Crow: Quilts and Influences and Improvisational Quilts. Crow's signature line of fabric is distributed worldwide by Kent Avery (Westwood).
