Cindy Brick

Join Cindy Brick as she brings our American Golden West to life: in stories and in quilts.

Explore the rich history of the rush for gold and silver wealth in our western states during the 1800s. Cindy profiles nine brave and daring heroines of the era - Belle Starr, Molly Brown, Baby Doe Tabor, and more.

Ten quilt patterns are included so you can recreate your own period piece. Some quilts are designed in the heroines' honor: one version featuring color portraits of each, as well as a redwork version.

You'll also find an extensive quilting instruction section, with tips covering everything from washing - or not washing - fabric to the importance of ironing. Cindy adds details about fabrics and colors used in the period, clothing, and so much more!

Cindy's experience with teaching, judging, appraising and writing combine to make this a rich, lovely resource for recreating historical quilts.
