A Prairie Journey: Small Quilts That Celebrate the Pioneer Spirit

by Kathleen Tracy

Overview

Enjoy 13 petite quilts with ties to the past, each inspired by yesterday's traditional blocks and today's reproduction fabrics. Best-selling author Kathleen Tracy whisks you back to an era when the classic quilt blocks of today were just making their debut. Stitch projects such as Wagon Wheels, Crossing the Prairie, and Aunt Sarah's Scrap Baskets, or make a signature quilt featuring blocks autographed by your family members. You'll find vintage photos and the words of pioneer women from the mid-nineteenth century sprinkled throughout.
