From Uncoverings 2000, Volume 21 of the Research Papers of the American Quilt Study Group
Laurel Horton has a M.S. in library science and a M.A. in folklore. Self­ employed as a researcher and consultant, Laurel presents grants work­shops to nonprofit groups and educators for the Polaris Corporation. She has served AQSG as both president and editor of Uncoverings. A frequent author and lecturer, her research focuses on regional varia­tions in quiltmaking traditions.

​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 2000, Volume 21, at this link, https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/aqsg-uncoverings/40/.
