Promenade dans un Jardin Hollandais / Promenade in a Dutch Garden by Petra Prins & An Moonen

This beautiful 255-page bilingual book (French and English) is a celebration of Dutch textile history and traditional quiltmaking, co-authored by renowned quilt designer Petra Prins and textile historian An Moonen. Promenade in a Dutch Garden features 18 unique quilt projects inspired by 18th to 20th-century Dutch antique quilts—many of which were crafted by women as a form of domestic artistry.

The book blends historical narrative with stunning design, offering readers detailed patterns alongside fascinating context on the heritage of Dutch quilting. From colorful broderie perse appliqué to fussy-cut florals and pieced triangle blocks, each project draws inspiration from museum-quality pieces and traditional Dutch motifs.

Quilt projects include:
Quilt de Poupée (Doll Quilt), Les Filles d’Arnhem, Log Cabin, L’Arbre de Vie (Tree of Life), Les Étoiles de Gooische, Noël 1830, Quand les Étoiles rencontrent les Hexagones (When Stars Meet Hexagons), Voyage dans le Temps (Traveling in Time), and more.

This is an ideal book for quilters who love European textile history, vibrant prints, and classic techniques made fresh.
