MAQS Quilts: The Founders Collectionby Victoria Faoro
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The "best of the best" is an apt description of the 193 quilts included in the Founders Collection of the Museum of the American Quilter's Society (MAQS). Made by 163 quiltmakers, seven of the quilts in the collection are included in the "Best 100 Twentieth Century American Quilts." Six of the quilts are designated masterpiece quilts by the National Quilting Association. The museum, founded in 1991 by Bill and Meredith Schroeder, has achieved worldwide recognition in its mission to "honor today's quiltmakers." All of the works in the collection were made from 1980 on and each year nearly 50,000 people visit MAQS, enjoying the Founders Collection as well as other museum exhibits and programs. Commemorating the tenth anniversary of this state-of-the-art museum, this volume also chronicles the ongoing quiltmaking revival that began in the 1980s. Included are full-color photos of all the quilts, along with profiles of each quiltmaker and an overview of the museum's first ten years. Featuring quilts in every technique — applique, pieced, hand- and machine-sewn and quilted — each quilt is a masterpiece in itself. See for yourself why viewers love this collection!
