Book Description
Quilting has a rich history in Maine and America and its popularity has surged in recent years as people return to traditional handcrafts. The history of quilting in Maine is a story of community and Maine State Museum curator Laurie LaBar coaxes stories out of objects and uses those stories to enlighten, entertain, and bring new voices to Maine history. The first book of its kind, Maine Quilts 250 Years ofComfort and Community is the accompanying volume to a major two-year exhibit at the Maine State Museum. Stories abound, and lesser known aspects of the state’s history are brought to light, but the star attractions are the quilts themselves. Ranging from surviving Colonial era quilts to present day creations, more than 150 are presented in full color.

Book Description
The quilt is constructed in the "strip pieced" technique. Select two different color families. From each color family, choose four fabrics in values ranging from very dark to very light. The values should move graceful from one fabric to the next. Each detail of cutting and construction of the quilt is given in step by step directions with pressing techniques taught so that every seam fits together perfectly.
