A few weeks ago I was contacted by the curator of the New England Quilt Museum, Pam Weeks. They were finalizing an upcoming exhibit on The Roots of Modern Quilting and thought my Mod Hex 2 quilt would be the perfect addition to the exhibit.
Feeling completely humbled and honored, I of course agreed to let them use my quilt in the exhibit.
The opening reception was this past Saturday. The museum was lucky to have both Victoria Findlay Wolfe and Jacquie Gering attend the opening reception.
Here's my quilt hanging right next to Angela Walters' quilt.
Here's Victoria with her third double wedding ring quilt in a series of 12.
Jacquie Gering's quilt is on the left and Thomas Knauer's is on the right. (I totally forgot to grab a photo of Jacquie.)
And this is a Denyse Schmidt quilt. The lighting of this quilt really made it shine.
I think the most humbling thing about being in this exhibit is the fact that my little ol' quilt is on display among some of the most wonderful names in quilting today - Denyse Schmidt, Jacquie Gering, Victoria Findlay Wolfe, Thomas Knauer, Heather Jones, Molly Upton, Angela Walters, Radka Donnell and Lucy Mingo. And then there's little ol' me.
Thank you Pam Weeks for including me in this wonderful exhibit. I am truly honored.
