    Default Boston Album quilts

    I have been thinking about starting a Boston Album quilt...should take the rest of my life, but I thought I would like to give it a try...Can anyone suggest a good book to work from? I have looked on the internet and found several books of interest. Before I purchase one, I am asking for any input. Thanks so much.

    Never heard of a Boston Album Quilt. Only Baltimore Albun is the one that comes to mind. Picture Please???

    If I were beginning a Baltimore album quilt, I would reference anything by Elly Sienkiewicz as she is truly a master album maker and historian. Look her up on amazon.

    I agree with Jan about Elly Sienkiewicz. I think I would choose a book based on whether the designs appealed to me.
