World-renowned quilter Nancy Crow's work is presented for a general audience for the first time in this volume.

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 />
