“Four Centuries of Quilts The Colonial Williamsburg Collection”
December 21, 2014
Beautifully photographed and well written is Four Centuries of Quilts The Colonial Williamsburg Collection by Linda Baumgarten and Kimberly Smith Ivey.
This excellent reference book published this Fall is taken from the world-renowned collection of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. There are more than 300 color images and details. The evolution of quilting styles and trends as they relate to the social, political, and economic issues of their time.
The collection includes quilts made by diverse religious and cultural groups over 400 years and across continents, from the Mediterranean, England, France, America, and Polynesia. The earliest quilts were made in India and the Mediterranean for export to the west and date to the late 16th century. Examples from 18th- to 20th-century America, many made by Amish and African-American quilters, reflect the multicultural nature of American society and include boldly colored and patterned worsteds and brilliant pieced and appliquéd works of art.
Grand in scope and handsomely produced, Four Centuries of Quilts: The Colonial Williamsburg Collection is sure to be one of the most useful and beloved references on quilts.

Penny Sisto Exhibit at Carnegie Center for Art & History, New Albany, Indiana, October 24 – January 10, 2015
August 6, 2014
I just learned that Carnegie Center for Art & History in New Albany, Indiana, will have an exhibit of Penny Sisto’s work beginning October 24, 2014, through January 10, 2015. www.carnegiecenter.org
I love her work, and have her “Madonna and Child,” which I acquired many years ago. I see the compassion in their quilted eyes and feel the warmth of their spirit… just as Sisto said on her web site about some owners of her quilts seeing and feeling.
Penny’s web site is http://www.pennysisto.com, where you can see photos of her work in her gallery section. You may see the compassion in their quilted eyes and feel the warmth of their spirit, too. This photo is of “Turquoise Belt,” one of her pieces from the Heartbeat 2011 series.

Nancy Rink’s Quilts Stolen from her Home
| August 1, 2014 | |
 Quilter, pattern designer, and dye artist, Nancy Rink, has had virtually all of her quilts stolen right out of her studio in Bakersfield, California, some time between 5:00 PM Friday 7/25 and 9:00 AM Monday 7/28.
Nancy’s quilts are her livelihood and as she says, “I have trunk shows booked at guilds and it makes it very difficult to give a trunk show without my quilts. ” Nancy has posted images of the main quilts stolen here (there are probably more) just in case you see or hear of anything. Please call the BPD 661-327-7111 or 661-852-7850 if you see or hear anything suspicious. Nancy is also offering a $1000 reward for whoever facilitates the return of her quilts. As Reported by The Quilt Show |
