With Needle and Thread: A Book about Quilts

Some people like art to put on the wall, but other people like to make art that you can snuggle up under. Who says art is only a painting? Why not have art everywhere? This is what quilters think. Quilts are art for everyone. No matter how poor you are, you can still make beautiful and useful art in a quilt. Quilts can be complicated or simple. They can show pictures, tell a story, remember a famous event, or even hide maps. And some are just made to be beautiful. In this book you can meet some quilt artists, see beautiful quilts from today and from the past, and look on as quilters bring a new quilt to life.
