Many Hands Make a Quilt: Short Histories of Radical Quilting
A vital and tender record of the quilts that have shaped history — and the hands that stitched them.
Throughout history, marginalised communities have turned to the collective intimacies of quilting in moments of need.

Written by Jess Bailey and edited by Laura Moseley.
