Critics Review
Hardwicke’s cover quilt is her own heirloom “story in yarn,” comprised of 32 hexagons with intarsia floral motifs—including seasonal favorite crocuses, sunflowers, hydrangeas, holly and snowdrops. The pattern for her quilt is given, but she also walks knitters through the steps of creating their own heirlooms with motifs that carry personal meaning for them.
