A New Quilt Every Month!

...thanks to the International Quilt Study Center in Lincoln, NE. Sign up for their monthly calendar, and you'll see a beautiful quilt, up-close and personal, plus detailed info about its makers, age and origins.

April's selection is a modern era Crazy (1980s), seen below. The selections range from modern to antique, artsy to traditional. It's a nice way to get to know these quilts...and an excellent forum for learning more about quilts. (Their museum and changing exhibits are terrific, too.)
