Over 104,000 visitors attended the three-day "World Quilt '98" show in Tokyo. The centerpiece of that celebration of the art of quilting was an exhibit of eighty-eight quilts from the Ardis and Robert James Collection at the University of Nebraska. The James Collection, housing more than one thousand pieced and appliqued representatives of this distinctly American art, contains some of the most striking masterpieces from quilting's past. This catalogue presents vivid color photographs of all eighty-eight quilts chosen for the exhibit. Made between 1820 and 1950, they represent the best of American quilting in a variety of patterns, styles, and traditions.
