| Presenter | Barb Adams and Alma Allen |
| Condition | BRAND NEW DVD in factory shrinkwrap. |
| Publisher | © 2008 Kansas City Star Books |
| Description | A 30 minute documentary film about the Historical Kansas City Star Quilt Patterns. Region-free (will play in all DVD players worldwide). They were born in the newsroom of The Kansas City Star, the first one, in 1928, called simply, 'Pine Tree'. Over time, they would represent quilters, both urban and rural, all over the US. These patterns became known as 'The Kansas City Star' and by 1961, the paper published more than 1,000. To this day, it remains arguably one of the largest single pattern collections in the world. This DVD captures the history of the Kansas City Stars, and includes archival photographs and footage from the era. Some of quilting's most prolific historians are interviewed on the film, including Barbara Brackman, Edie McGinnis, and Jeanne Poore. The ladies of Blackbird Designs, Barb Adams and Alma Allen, also offer their insight on quilting. The disk also includes 100 Kansas City Star patterns (a selection of blocks from 1928 - 1961) , provided by The Electric Quilt Company. EQ5 or EQ6 software is required to use these patterns. |
