    Quilting History

    Listening to a podcast where a modern quilter declared quilting was static from pioneer times until revolutionized by the Modern Quilt movement, I realized I don’t know who developed techniques I use often like flying geese 4 at a time. Who introduced quilter s to the rotary cutter? Freezer paper foundation piecing? Does anyone have a source for this side of quilt history? Thank you.

      Elaine M, Here is your chance to write a book or at least an article for a quilting magazine. Google search probably has
      all your answers. All your have to do is type them in, then write a paragraph about each question and there will thousands of quilters eager
      to read your work. HelenW
