Host Jill Wagner travels the country on a quest to find talented craftsmen who still make incredible items by hand. Her first stop is Bastrop, Texas, where young quilter Maura Ambrose is fanatically dedicated to the traditions of hand sewing quilts and dying fabrics. In the hills of Morganton, North Carolina, Jill meets gunsmith Bobby Denton who creates elegant replicas of flintlock long rifles. Finally, Jill travels to Elgin, Illinois, to hang out in the workshop of acclaimed artist Walter Arnold, one of the few stone carvers in the United States who apprenticed in the marble carving studios of Italy.
