How to Make an America Quilt

How to Make an American Quilt by Whitney Otto: This is a lot different than the movie, for those who've seen it. It focuses on the pasts of all the quilt makers, and unlike the movie, where Finn Dodd (i think that's her name) (played by Winona Ryder) is the main character, in the book she is only the narrator repeating the stories of the quilters told her by Anna Neale, the first member of the Grasse Quilting Circle. Every other chapter there are Instructions on how to make a certain kind of quilt, what fabrics to use, etc. But in those instructions is tied in the story of what's going to happen in the next chapter. I don't have much else to say about it, especially since I turned the book in to the library so I can't read the book jacket, and I've read another book since this one. All there is to say is that its good. It really pulled me in, I wanted to know what would happen with so-and-so in the next chapter and what the author would say about it in the quilting instructions. Look it up at barnes and noble or something, if you want to know anything else, because I got nothing else : ) love you!
