This book must want to be read by me! I offered this up in a relay to grant someone's wish off of their wishlist even though I hadn't read it because I figured it'd end up collecting dust forever. Then... I went to a goodwill that same night and lo and behold, there sat another copy of the book for 50 cents. So... I'm guessing it's meant for me to read this book! ;)

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Inventive and haunting, How to Make an American Quilt powerfully captures the rites of passage in women's lives. The art of quiltmaking becomes a metaphor for the realities of being a woman in America as the unforgettable stories of seven members of a contemporary California quilting group unfold. And as we come to understand the beauty and complexity of the quilting process — to see its evolution in our country's history — we come to intimately know the history of these women as well.
