This collection includes three great quilt books. 'The New American Quilt: An Innovation in Contemporary Quilt Design' by Margit Echols, published by Doubleday & Co., Inc in 1976. 'Chains of Love; A Totally New Look for Irish Chain Quilts' by Jackie Robinson, from Country Thread Designs in 1988. And 'Double Wedding Ring Patchwork with Plastic Template' by Mary Carolyn Waldrep, published by Dover Publications Inc in 1992. The books are in good condition, with minor shelf and edgewear, mild creasing and soiling on covers, and soiling along the fore - edge of the text block. The 'Double' book comes with plastic templates, and 'Chains' has stickers from a previous owner on the front cover. The bindings are secure, and these books were part of the Kettunen Center Library, with proceeds benefiting the MI 4H Foundation.
These quilt books are great resources for quilting enthusiasts. To use them, simply flip through the pages to find inspiration for your next quilt project. You can follow the patterns and instructions provided by the authors. When handling the books, be gentle to avoid further wear and tear. Since they already have some minor damage, it's best to place them on a clean surface when you're using them. For storage, keep them in a dry and cool place to prevent any additional soiling or creasing. If you're using the plastic templates from the 'Double Wedding Ring Patchwork' book, make sure to clean them after each use with a soft, dry cloth. And that's all you need to know to make the most of these wonderful quilt books!
