I preordered this book with great expectations. No disappointment, it is one to savor over several days. Full of beautiful inspiration, it is the best of the art quilt books of 2008. I am an art quilter myself and don't take the time to write reviews often.
As reviewed in Melisse Laing's "Stitches & Stuff" column in The Daily News, Longview, WA on August 26, 2008:
"Masters: Art Quilts" by Martha Sielman is a collection of the works of 41 artists who are working today as art quilters. Many are well known - Jane Sassaman, Hollis Chatelain, Yvonne Porcella, Caryl Bryer Fallert, to name a few.
Others you will enjoy getting to know as you read brief biographies and comments from the artists and see color photographs of their works.
