Hi y'all. I'm Joanna, a non-quilter who loves quilts. My grandmother, who quilted, started my family in the tradition of collecting (as well as using) quilts. When my mother passed away, I inherited a collection of more than 70 hand quilted textile masterpieces. Most of these are king size quilts. This doesn't count the wall hangings. The most unusual portion of my collection is a group of quilts on the theme of Christmas. I'm semi-retired now and travel giving talks about quilts. My website is www.havequiltswilltravel.com.
I hope to hear from some of you with feedback. Thanks.

Welcome from North Carolina. Such a blessing to have so many quilts and to know their history. Every quilt could tell a story, if only they could talk. Great that you can do that for them. Please show them to us.

Hi, those of us in Kentucky and surrounding areas are discussing the possibility of a get together in March. Maybe you would consider being our guest speaker? Check the topic of Kentucky gathering... Qbee, I think is working on the plans. We would love to hear your stories and see some of your quilts.

I'm from just outside Louisville, Goshen, KY. I lived in Louisville until we retired and then moved East to be closer to our daughter and grandkids. I still drive into Louisville to teach part time.
