Title: Important in quilt history, but don't believe a word she says
Product review: This book remains important in the history of quilt studies, as one of the first to examine American quilt history, but it is absolutely ridden with romantic myths and errors. Don't take anything she says as gospel. Her assertions, completely unfounded and undocumented, have been repeated endlessly in books on quilts of the Colonial Revival (30s-40s) and the quilt revival (70s-today), but it doesn't make them true. Be very, very cautious in quoting her or in assuming that anyone quoting her later on, knows what they are talking about.
