Patchwork and Quilting in Britain by Heather Audin
Patchwork quilts are hugely evocative emblems of our domestic past. With no two quite the same, each example hints both at the story of the particular household in which it was produced and at a larger piece of social history. This book offers an introduction to an important aspect of British domestic history.
Heather Audin has worked for the Quilters Guild as curator since the museum opened in 2008, where she is responsible for care of collections, writing and organising exhibitions and answering public enquiries on the historic collections. She has a background in museums and has documented a large range of museum collections including social history, costume and textiles. She also has a personal interest in historic costume, is a keen sewer and dabbles in patchwork in her spare time!
