From the Wichita Falls Museum of Art:
“More often than not, a quilt tells a story. It can be an obvious story based on images or words sewn into the fabric, but sometimes it requires insider knowledge or perhaps explanations of quilting patterns in order to know what the author or quilter is saying.
From Colonial quilts through the Industrial revolution, to the Abolitionist movement into the Crazy Quilt era of the 19th century, to the thousands of quilts made in the 1940s and 1950s from printed farm feed sacks and contemporary experimentation with materials that redefine what a quilt can be, the quilting journey offers a rich history that includes patterns, stories, and collaboration.
Join the WFMA on this journey, starting with pattern in quilts from the Permanent Collection.”
