The story of the quilts is told through glorious color photographs, vintage black-and-white images, and detailed text. Drawing on oral interviews with quilters and the close study of Minnesota's classic quilts, Minnesota quilt historians explore the connections quilts have had to our history, our families, and our everyday life. Quilts included in the book date from settlement to 1975. In addition to the quilts documented by the Minnesota Quilt Project, Minnesota Quilts features quilts from the collections of the Minnesota Historical Society and other state historical societies.

The beautiful floral applique quilts of the nineteenth century have long been admired and appreciated. This book showcases fifty-three striking examples of these quilts, taken from the Ardis and Robert James Collection of the International Quilt Study Center at the University of Nebraska. The quilts comprise a range of styles, including cut-out chintz applique quilts, album-style quilts, a number of red-and-green floral applique quilts, as well as a limited number of pieced quilts and crazy quilts. Included with each botanically inspired quilt is a detailed, informative description of its applique, piecing, and quilting techniques as well as enlightening background information concerning the historical, horticultural, and botanical influences on the quilt's design and execution. Helpful essays at the beginning of the book explore nineteenth-century women's sustained interest in botany and examine the fascinating parallels between the designs of flower gardens and those of quilts during that era.
