Back Cover Information

Barb Adams and Alma Allen explore the use of the house motif in the featured nine-block quilt. The home is a beloved symbol in American folk art and has been used in samplers, hooked rugs, paintings and, or course, quilts. This quilted community features homes throughout the seasons.

Stoll along thistle Hill Road or Oak Street and meet Barb's and Alma's frinds and neighbors. After a look around town, you'll want to go to your nearest quilt shop and get your "building permit," your blueprints and your construction materials so you can start sewing your own village, block by block.
