This highly illustrated book showcases the Montana's best, most unique, and most interesting quilts and describes the life and times of the extraordinary people who made them. Border to Border: Quilts and Quiltmakers of Montana is an invaluable addition to quilting literature and to Montana history. - Over 150 rich, full-color photography of quilts- Over 50 historical photographs- Authentic, well-researched histories of individual quilts and quiltmakers |
