    Default Very Interesting Event every 2 years

    I just heard about this quilt show that is exhibited every 2 years. It is not a judged show but more about the stories behind the quilts that are displayed. You can read about the stories if you click on that little black box at the very top of the site (the one with the 3 white lines in it & then click on *stories* to hear about what inspired the quilter to make the quilt. If you scroll down to the very bottom of the page that has the stories on it, there is a 45 minute documentary that tells all about the organization. I read that first & now am in the process of viewing all the stories. I like it because of the stories & the fact that the quilts are not *judged*.

    The web site if fascinating. The theme of joy, hope, grief and so on to express the uplifting parts of the human experience should make this show a tear jerker. I only wish I lived close to be able to go to this one. Thanks for sharing this one.
