The creators pay tribute to Appalachian women who told stories through quilts with this visually arresting picture book, which intersperses facts about day-to-day life alongside an introduction to the craft. Made of clay, fabric, paper, and wire, Page’s mixed-media collages provide an appealing dimensionality, imbuing the quilts—and the intergenerational figures of various skin tones portrayed throughout—with an appropriately homemade quality.
