Overview

Twelve by Twelve examines the two-year-long international collaboration among twelve art quilters as they created 144 quilts based on twelve themes. Not only does the book showcase the quilts themselves--a feature quilt from each theme receives an in-depth chapter--it also examines the dynamics of developing a vibrant online community of artists.
