The Kentucky Quilt Project, Inc., has created “a nine-part documentary series titled Why Quilts Matter: History, Art & Politics. The series takes a fresh look at quilts and spreads the word about their unique position at the center of a startlingly broad grid of topics, ranging from women’s studies to the contemporary art market.” as stated on their site: www.whyquiltsmatter.org/welcome/about-the-series/
You’ll need to check your PBS schedule for Fall 2011 to find out when this series will be available in your area.

/ May 19, 2012A wonderful day at the New England Quilt Museum at the Garden Party for the 25th Anniversary. The presentation about “Why Quilts Matter” was outstanding and makes a quilter proud to be involved in this process. A truly was to feel the kinship with other quilters.
Thanks to all who arranged a wonderful afternoon.
Best,
