1989

Baltimore Album Appliqué

Sienkiewicz single-handedly revived interest in the ornate, padded 19th-century Baltimore Album tradition with this first volume — 21 classic album blocks with full instructions for the layered, sometimes stuffed appliqué technique the style demands. It's a deep, technical entry point, not a casual weekend project, and it launched an entire genre of album-quilt revival books that followed. Suited to appliqué quilters ready to move well past basic shapes.

Reflections of Baltimore

Jeana Kimball

Kimball's first book, written and published before dedicated Baltimore Album pattern books existed at all, launching her long career in the style. It's a genuinely obscure title outside applique-specialist circles — no mainstream quilting-media coverage, still passed around among Baltimore Album devotees more than three decades later. A companion piece to Sienkiewicz's foundational volume, from an independent early voice in the same revival.
