A Stitch in Crime: Quilt Detective Novels

1998
Elsley, Judy
United States
From Uncoverings 1998, Volume 19 of the Research Papers of the American Quilt Study Group
Judy Eisley was born and raised in England, but now lives in Utah where she is an associate professor of English at Weber State Uni­versity. Her revised Ph.D. dissertation, Quilts as Text(iles), Peter Land Press, and her book of essays, Getting Comfortable, Jumping Challa Press, were both published in 1997. She also co-edited Quilt Culture: Tracing the Patterns issued by the University of Missouri Press in 1994. This is her third paper in Uncoverings.

​When AQSG added Uncoverings articles to the Quilt Index, they omitted all the illustrations, for lack of permissions. Although the articles found in the QI (1980-2010, 2012-2016) lack illustrations, they link to quilts, essays, special collections, and documentation projects across the Quilt Index, introducing them to a wider audience. The permission issues have since been resolved and in 2024, AQSG completed adding all the Uncoverings volumes from 1980-2023 to the Digital Commons@University of Nebraska-Lincoln. They are completely searchable and include all the illustrations. You can find, Uncoverings 1998, Volume 19, at this link, https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/aqsg-uncoverings/44/.
