In 2007, fifty-four quilt artists from across the United States as well as Canada, the United Kingdom and Israel explored the meaning for the word Connections.
Many delved deep into extremey personal issues while others focused on world issues or the more literal definition of the word. Each quilt is as unique as the artist.
The 2007 exhibit produced a varied and remarkable array of styles. Please enjoy viewing the online gallery.
