"H" quilt finds a home at the High Museum of Art

I have gifted the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, GA this double-sided “H” quilt as part of their collection that rightfully includes quilts in their artwork collection.

I have always admired both sides: the graphic H’s (or are they I’s?) on the front, then the psychedelic squiggles of yellow and green on the back. It had been originally found in Texas, came to California, and now it will be loved and cared for in Atlanta.
