Common Threads: 150 Years of Adirondack Quilts & Comforters

"Common Threads" will explore themes of women's work, domestic life, social networks in a rural area, generational continuity among women, and women’s artistic response to life in the Adirondacks.

Quilts and comforters serve as paths to stories of the sort that don’t get recorded in history books.

This is where my 'heirloom" day quilt on display.
