While researching for a trend assignment for another of my classes, I came across this exhibition about "African American Quilts" and thought that perhaps some of you might like it :) It is so colorful and inspiring! Here is the website for the exhibition. Perhaps if you are in the Seattle area you go and take a peek.

Monica, thank you for posting this. My father was from Alabama, and his mother made dozens of these quilts for us. It was fun to see our dresses appear as a patch in a quilt. I'm trying to re-create a faded paisley from one of the quilts I have by using CAD now. This is a bit of history that is worth preserving and sharing.
