Eight Hands Round by Ann Whitford Paul
"Paul provides information about pioneer life through speculation about the origins of 26 quilt patterns, one for each letter of the alphabet. The variety of colors and designs makes the quilts themselves the real stars of the book [and] will [encourage] students to develop their own creations in cloth or on paper." --SLJ.Outstanding Books of 1991 (NYT)
