About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Quilts, Their Story and How to Make Them by Marie D. Webster. Read in English by MaryAnn Spiegel. Although the quilt is one of the most familiar and necessary articles in our households, its story is yet to be told. In spite of its universal use and intimate connection with our lives, its past is a mystery which -- at the most -- can only be partially unravelled. (from the Introduction)
