Carrie A. Hall; Bettina Havig; Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art

Synopsis:
An enterprising young woman in the early 1900s, Carrie Alma Hackett Hall was determined to piece a cloth block for every known patchwork pattern. Her collection of more than 850 blocks is safely tucked away at the University of Kansas, Spencer Museum. This new release makes most of that historic collection available to everyone in splendid full-color photographs. Those who cherish The Romance of the Patchwork Quilt in America, written in 1935 by Carrie Hall and Rose G. Kretsinger, will love the updated presentation of this wonderful collection.
