Every quilt has a story

the long version

"Nancy Mink loves quilts. She designs them, sews them, paints them, and now writes about them. In this beautifully illustrated gift book, Nancy encourages readers to pick up a needle, take a stitch, and discover a love both for the craft and the friends that gather to enjoy it. Woven through the pages are personal stories about devoted quilters from across the country, intriguing and little-known historic facts about quilting, and colorful watercolors of many different quilt designs. Piece by piece, this charming gift book explores quilting as a loving form of art and celebrates the friendships born while bent to the task. For quilters, their friends, and all who appreciate this timeless skill, this is a gift to bless and honor them"--Back cover.
