35 quilts now part of IQM’s permanent collection.

Two of my quilts, Spider Web and Bow Tie, have been donated to the Newark Museum.

Amelia Peck's dedication to women as makers makes me especially excited to have my crib quilt created by Nellie Block in the Metropolitan Museum's collection.

It’s always exciting to hang a quilt exhibition!

My quilts are going “on holiday” as they say: Quiltfolk is sponsoring a special exhibition of quilts in the UK this August.

I have curated an exhibition of Freddy Moran’s face quilts at IQM.

Joe Cunningham curates Here Comes the Sun to add a bit more orange into the world.

I opened my mail today and found the catalogue for Losing the Compass.

She writes about the “naive wackiness” of Found/Made at the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles.

I am pleased to share that two of my quilts are part of the exhibition, Losing the Compass, at White Cube's Mason's Yard space.

In conjunction with my exhibition at the Festival of Quilts, I am thrilled to be giving a lecture on the ‘unconventional and unexpected’ aspects of quilts.

I joined in to talk quilts on ‘Soft Bulk’, an ongoing conversation investigating and celebrating the unique qualities of quilts, including: flexibility, sculpture, softness, and cultural context.

Sharing in the spirit of “One quilt, one person, one video camera, three minutes = another quilt story saved!”

I got to remember finding quilts and discuss quilt history with law professor Elizabeth Townsend Gard.

Quilts are finding themselves on the catwalk and in the stores of Paris and New York.

I was very excited to be invited to speak with Sandi Hazlewood of Crafty Planner, who does a very thoughtful and well curated series of podcasts about the world of textiles.

I got to share what's so "unconventional and unexpected" about the quilts in my collections and the story of how I came to fall in love with quilts.

The Quilt Alliance has kindly posted a clip of my talk from 2014 for Quilters Take Manhattan, where I discuss this House quilt that has the distinction of appearing in both Unconventional & Unexpected as well as The American Quilt.
