<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>As warm as the cherished quilts found across America, and sure to appeal to the country's 13 million quilters, Kathy Lamancusa's newest anthology celebrates these wonderful works of art and love. In this heartwarming book, she gathers stories that show why quilts touch lives in a special way.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>QUILTS -- PIECES OF FABRIC SEWN TOGETHER LIKE MOMENTS IN TIME, AS HANDMADE AS LIFE ITSELF <br> Every quilt has a story to tell, an endearing story that lasts forever. Whether it is a craft-fair find, a generations-old family heirloom, or an art collector's most prized piece, quilts warm our bodies and our hearts. <br> Ever since pioneer women organized sewing circles to combat the harshness and isolation of the American West, women have turned to quilting to celebrate, share, and heal. In this heartwarming collection of inspirational stories, we see the celebrations, joys, and heartaches behind the stitches. One family lovingly pieces together a birthday present for their aging father, while a garage-sale quilt comes to symbolize the ties between a young man and his mother. Thirteen pre-Civil War ladies sew squares for their schoolmate's wedding quilt, while a young boy adds his own square to the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt in honor of his father. No matter the circumstances, these stories deliver the spirit of quilting, friendship, and love with every word.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Kathy Lamancusa, </b> a nationally known trend strategist, inspirational speaker, and creative lifestyle book author, is the host of <i>At Home with Flowers, </i> which has appeared on several PBS stations, and is a frequent guest on HGTV's decorating shows, as well as on programs on the Learning Channel, the Discovery Channel, Lifetime, and the major networks.
