I am rather moved. The film shows very well how quilts have played an important role in the story of the USA, serving as powerful means of expression, yet practical items. The are rich with stories, reflecting the lives of those who made them. Also, it's incredible to see how this tradition continues today, with contemporary artists bringing their perspectives. These quilts are not just pieces of art; they are important reminders of history and heritage. The film does a wonderful job.

Gracias KZfaq por los tutoriales de labores de agujas,todas me encanta y enseñan cosas nuevas. Desde Puerto Rico saludos y Bendiciones.

I have just finished revisiting QUILTS and am ushered away from all current troubles.

The Navajo lady quilter’s segment is extraordinary. Thanks 💐💐💐

Great documentary. Happy to see African American quilters and male AA quilters.

Giving a quilt you put all your time and love into to someone you care about or someone in need really is the best part of making a quilt. I really feel that receiving a gift someone put that much care into is such a true form of love! They are my favorite gifts to give and receive! It's equally a little piece of the giver and the receiver.

Thank you so much for this video! Please, please make more videos like this! I am 63 years old. Ive only been a quilter for 3 years, but I love it. I finish my quilts by hand, and it's true that all the love I am feeling and many other emotions go into my quilts. It is a very fulfilling hobby.

I met Susan at the Heard Museum in Scottsdale,AZ. She is a friend of one of my dear friends and am delighted to know her. She is sweet and bold at the same time. Her quilts are marvelous and tell heartbreaking stories.

A most interesting documentary. I've never even learnt to sew, let alone quilt - but have always been interested in quilts. I have a few vintage quilts, bought from flea markets and charity shops, that I use at home as bed covers - nothing precious but lovely nevertheless. Own several books on them too. Something about quilts just calls to me. I love them.

This is a very informative and interesting film. I'm English and find quilt making releaves stress in my busy life. Choosing the fabrics and designing with my 3 cats is my favourite part of the making process and having a cat sleep on the finished quilt is like winning the lottery.

A Young Obama quilt by Michael Arthur Cummings is spectacular!

beaucoup d'amour, de respect, d'Histoire, c'est émouvant et magnifique

Ken burns talking about quilts? My day is complete!

Deeply touched my heart! I am 79 and have been hand-sewing since about 6. Embroidery to tell stories at age 10 when Daddy bought for me an embroidery tea towek kit. I made endless pillow cases sheets and table cloths. Even my dresses in High School. Being from Salt Lake City, I grew up with The Mormon Quilting Guild. My passion for quilts started in 1970. Today I am quilting along with great joy & enthusiasm. This video is profound. Thank you all.

❤💝🥰 Particularly the Navajo part. I started quilting because the fabric was free: old clothes and sewing project scraps.

Beautiful documentary beautiful people.

Beautiful stories, and beautiful art. These people have something special.

Love this program. I made a quilt and gave it to my husband as a wedding present

Wonderful. A must see for all artists. The "best" time in my life was spent sleeping under my great grandmother's red work quilt!

This was my favorite of the entire series; so inspiring, I knew about Victoria Findlay Wolfe - but Michael Cummings.was a new delight for me !!! I'm awed by all of these artists. I i had seen the one with the Navajo quilter and it brought tears to my eyes; so beautiful. And the Desconocitos exhibit broke my hears. The lady who dyes her own fabrics and makes wonderful quilts; thank you so much for this one especially.

The Navajo quilter was wonderful! This is really an exciting program. Quilting is so diverse that there is really something for everyone. The Migrant Quilt Project really strikes a chord with me.

Loved this. I am an African and Native American Quilter and Fiber Artist. This was very inspiring.

Susan Hudson❤️ thrilled to see your quilts at QuiltCon 2022. Thanks to Mac Cox on the go reporter!

ich liebe Patchwork und Quilten , vielen dank , wunderschönes Video , Großartige Künstler

Thank you to all the sponsors for making this video become a reality. It has inspired, amazed and touched my heart to see all these beautiful, mindful and interesting fabric art works.

Thank you for this exceptional program. When reading the remarks I felt like I was visiting with friends. I am 92, have made only about ten quilts and since I seem to lack that special quilt touch four of them were whole cloth. I just didn’t seem to have a gift for coordinating color when piecing. Quilt on, Ladies!

Thank you. I have been making lap robes and baby quilts.

This show made me gasp in awe. It brought tears and grins and winks to my face. It gave me goose bumps. It made me say WOW 😲 Really loud in my own den.👏👏👏👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I think the most interesting thing about our life is not what we may have suffered in the process. And I don't want to think of it as nothing but sadness. Just having to live life, to have endure and in a way conquer it. That's how I think of it. Alot of suffering and someone paid the prize do we could have a better, such a more wonderful life with God at our side. I feel I have to be proud of what others did for us, good or bad. For God for certain that he will take something bad and turn it around for Good. And it's up to us to keep it that way. Our ancestors went through so much. I know for myself I don't have to go out and hunt for my food. Work for it yes. After the freeze we had last year , it made me appreciate more for those who came before us and open the way for a better life for me. I love, just love quilts, and I love America and it's people no matter what.

I am not brand new to sewing, but I am quite new to quilting. I love that the things I am making, even if in a tiny way, connect to this long and rich history of makers (especially women, and especially textiles). What a beautiful documentary!

Missed the program on PBS but my friend Karen Maddoxx mentioned that UTube has an excerpt here. Thank you providing this to interested folks who enjoy quilt history. Wonderful rich history of collages and quilts. Quilts bring people together, even if you aren’t yet a quilter 😀

I could watch these over and over! Well done series on all sort of crafts.

Very informative! I started quilting almost 40 years ago, but nothing on this scale. I love the process.

Mr Cummings is an amazing artist.

I have been quilting for about 5 yrs. I started by following other quilters patterns, and slowly built up my piecing skills. I can now confidently say, I am a very good piecer. However, my actual quilting skills need work. But that is where the passion comes in! I’m in my 60’s and still love to learn and grow. The women in this video, as well as others, inspire me to keep evolving.

What a gem of a video! I enjoyed seeing all the quilts and hearing the stories shared by each quilt artist. As a quilter myself, I found this segment immensely inspiring.

Beautiful ! This touches my soul, as an American Indian. My grandmother was born in a cave and I have no way to prove my heritage but I honor it all the same. God Bless all the Indian Nations .

Great program and shared with my Quilt Guild❤️👍👍👍

"Something Greater than their parts". What a wonderful definition of a Quilt!

Thank you for the series and deep introduction to each maker and the connection of their lives with traditions

Such a beautiful and interesting history of quilts. Many thanks for uploading.

Thank you for this magnificent compilation! Helps me to explain why I Quilt to my friends.

So beautiful and people will not forget!

So proud to be a quilter in Nebraska! Hi Jonathan Gregory.

I'd love for this to be a series. This was just so educational and inspiring.

Oh, how I'm inspired by each individual story and artist. ... For years I've been sleeping under two quilts handmade by my mother. 🧵🧷

Love this! I spent alot of time on the Navajo reservation growing up.

What a enjoyable video. Thanks for sharing.

Quilting is my therapy, so I really enjoyed this episode. ❤❤❤

I am divinely inspired!!!! Thank you!

My mother-in-law told me about this episode and I’ve been saving it on our DVR . I’m so excited to be able to share it with my social media friends!

Could I come and live in this man Michaels apartment for a week just love his work

What a great episode, I love this channel! Quilting has been a new favorite addiction of mine and I learned from several very talented women.

great respect for this artists

These videos are AWESOME. I feel like I just hit the jackpot.

I only got to see the last 6 minutes of this episode and I am SO GLAD it's here on KZfaq! Just finished watching the whole show. I'm a beginner quilter and I am HOOKED! This was FABULOUS! Thank you for letting us meet these artists!

I am speechless! Great documentary: besides being a great Art form, they tell important stories of American History. I am a quilter that began as a studio artist with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. Being disabled in a horrible accident, I turned from painting to quilting and I've never looked back. Thank You for this documentary; it establishes quilting as an Art form for sure! I LOVED this as it confirms my artistic direction.

Inspirational, informative, and heart touching history.

Never seen anything like it I love sewing they are just beautiful

So interesting to watch this-.truely professional crafters here!🙏🙏

Thank You for this OUTSTANDING video (documentary)❣While all the quilts, and their makers, are great pieces of art and history, the first Crazy Quilt took my breath away-- incredible😲

A beautiful set of quilts, a fine artist and a strong woman.

What a beautiful program.

Merci les filles. C est magnifique et de beaux cadeaux en perspective.

Thank you. I missed it, so thanks a bunch for sharing. Great program.

Such a beautiful video. Very informative.

A fascinating program, but how could you neglect to even mention the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt considered by some to be the largest piece of community folk art in the world at this time.

How absolutely fascinating.

This was such and amazing episode. Please keep doing full length episodes.

I no longer have a TV....got sick of watching all the horrors going on in the world! I did so want to watch this program however. Thanks for letting me do that on Utube! Love it.

Just truly fabulous!!!!

What a wonderful episode ❤️

Love this episode. It helped to remind me why I love quilting so much

Thank you!

This is a Wonderful quilting journey. Kay Wilson, the Sewing Toad

Love the history and the art

This was incredible! and inspiring! thank you

A very interesting take on quilting. Thanks.

This was incredibly beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Love the 29 warriors

wow fantastic quilts and stories

Thank you, for posting this episode. I saw the first one on television, but that was serendipitous. I had no idea when to look for another. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Awesome episode, and I’ve learned that quilting is a great way to connect people from all walks of life. I look forward to doing more research on some of the quilt projects that were not included and mentioned in the comments section.

Amazing, I enjoyed watching it.❤️

Love the button quilt.

Hayata! Awesomeness.

Love it!!!

Thank God!!! For some representation of other than old white ladies quilting. I knew there was more scope to this art/craft.

Very nice and beautiful 🙂🇱🇰

Very informative

Disappointed that it either covered nor mentioned the National Quilting Museum, as far as I could tell. Does Ken Burn's documentary show a broader view than this video?

❤

Amazing

❤️❤️❤️

Woww dear

Doesn’t the creator of the crazy dream quilt look a lot like Lori Holt? I wonder if they are related at all? Amazing! 😊

Beautiful and nice 🌹🎈🌹

I was hand stitching but used the wrong needles (dull headed ones). So I bought a sewing machine but it has been several years I have not taken it out of the box to learn how to use it.

Too Big the written in front of the screen. Is dificult to whatch what are they doing

Art yells at you about wheither it's done or if it still asks for something.
