Documents the Wilcox family quilt collection on Kauai.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This lovely little book showcases this private family quilt collection, now a part of the Grove Farm Homestead and Waioli Mission Houses Museum collection. The appliqued and pieced quilts, Hawaiian qpplique, flag, and redwork quilts, and the tapa bedcoverings date from the arrival of the first Wilcox missionary family through the WWII era. There are stories of a number of the quilters who quilted for the family. These quilts were made to be used by the family. In the 1920s, the Wilcox sisters also collected mainland quilts for use in the restored mission house. This museum publication is very nicely done and the photos of the quilts are great.
