CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Awesome Book -
I love this book and the stories that go with it. If you love quilts you will love this book.

Crafty History Lesson -
What a lovely way to learn about the early American pioneers and also learn how to make some small quilts. Our local quilt group is using this book to produce some miniature vintage quilts, with beautiful results. We are also gaining more understanding of the trials and accomplishments of our ancestors.
The book contains professional photographs and easy-to-follow instructions for 14 quilts.

Unusual crafts guide to producing vintage-looking items from modern resources. -
Kathleen Tracy's PRAIRIE CHILDREN AND THEIR QUILTS offers some fourteen small 'prairie quilt' projects which feature antique styles and designs of the 19th century. Vintage photos and diary entries from pioneer children accompany this unusual crafts guide to producing vintage-looking items from modern resources.

Pioneer life and beloved quilts from a child's point of view. -
Just opening this book draws you into our pioneering past. You will find a mixture of photos of pioneer children and families along with delightful quilts in the fabrics and styles of nineteenth century America on the move.

The excerpt for the diaries by pioneer children will both charm you and help you realize the hardships these children went through. The information in each chapter will get you in touch with what life was like for these children.

But this isn't just a history book. There are patterns for the quilts and other projects that are related to the aspects of pioneer life described. All of Kathleen Tracy's patterns include clear and complete instructions so that even a beginner can make these lovely little quilts.

Some of the patterns would be perfect for a child making his or her first quilt. Others could be a joint mother and child project. But of course grown ups will have a wonderful time making this quilts either for the children in their life, for their doll collection or just for fun.

Excellent service. -
The book arrived well before the promised time and in excellent condition.
Vicki R.
