I just came back from a visit to Paducah's National Quilt Museum. Now doesn't the word museum say antique to you all? Does to me and in previous visits there where beautiful antique quilts as well as the new "art quilts". Maybe I'm just old and I do love the new style of quilting, but Paducah had not a single antique quilt on exhibit. I was very disappointed and I venture to say this is the reason a lot of their downtown area has gone by the wayside. People go to the museum and are very disappointed by what they see.

Also, I'm a hand quilter, there were only machine quilts. Again, these were beautiful quilts, but definitely not what the word museum implys! They need to change the name to Modern quilt museum!!!
