This richly illustrated book showcases the astonishing creativity, design innovation, and skill of Amish women from communities across the United States through fifty premier quilts made between 1880 and 1940.

Pattern and Paradox celebrates the Faith and Stephen Brown collection of Amish Quilts at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Assembled over five decades, these fifty extraordinary examples expand our understanding of the distinctive aesthetics that Amish women shaped within and for their communities, and situate Amish quilts within the larger scope of quilts in America as well as within the American art story.
