As everyone else has said, incridible, beautiful, wonderfull, etc. They were all that and then some. Someone would have to make up more words for that show. And it was FREE????????? Unbelievable. That's incridible too. Such fun. Pack a sack lunch and make a total day of it. I wonder how long it took to set up. How long are they going to be there? Are they going to switch out the other 400 +- quilts. How long has she been quilting?? Did she quilt all of these herself or is she a collector also? She sure has good taste and talent! WOW

Just think about the love and devotion and hours that have been put into these quilts. Those creators certainly had a vision, and they have no idea how they all look together. Like a family gathering of red and white. Absolutely stunning. Wish I could have been there with you, but what you gave us was a virtual tour through your photography and I for one, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

the white-glove lady said that she started collecting after her child was bon in 1950. she's still an active collector.
