| 520 | 8 | |a In her introduction, Cecilia Macheski notes that these stories encourage us "to see women's literary history as a giant timeless quilting bee, where the writers gather around a frame and trade stories, gossip, and love." Renouncing the "competitiveness of the patriarchal world," women writers have, in the imagery of the quilt, instead chosen "a model of cooperative and supportive creativity." | |
| 520 | 8 | |a Five thematic sections explore quilts as expressions of remembrance and meaning (Memory Blocks), of community and courtship (Double Wedding Ring), of struggle and change (Radical Rose), of mystery and murder (Wheel of Mystery), and of age and wisdom (Old Maid's Ramble). | |
| 520 | 8 | |a Featuring works of Bobbie Ann Mason, Joyce Carol Oates, Alice Walker, Adrienne Rich, Alice MacGowan, and many others, Quilt Stories is a colorful literary album quilt composed of the unique blocks created and signed by the writers. More than twenty-five stories, poems, and plays featuring the making of quilts - written from 1845 to the present, mainly by American women - document an important pattern in women's literary history. | |
| 520 | |a Quilting was one of the few forms of creative expression open to past generations of women. Within the acceptable confines of making something "useful," these women stitched rather than penned their stories. Other artistic avenues have opened, but the writers gathered in this unique collection still claim kinship with their quilting sisters by the use of quilts in their writing. | ||
