Synopsis:

Make an exquisite quilt and form a close, creative community, too! For centuries, women have come together to do needlework and to share both good and bad times; here is the inspiring story of one quilting group that has followed in this age-old tradition. For 20 years they have worked their quilts and their magic, providing each other with an artistic outlet and friendship. Each one discusses her background and motivation for joining in; as they divulge the secrets of their success, these avid quilters offer a beautiful gift of a complete how-to handbook so that others can share the same joy they have experienced. You'll learn how you, too, can form a quilting community, and which projects to pick, what kind of leadership you'll need, what materials to send members, how to plan a surprise party, and how to care for the finished quilt. They even provide you with actual patterns! And, if you need more encouragement, just look at some of the over 50 incredible quilts these women have pieced and stitched.
