Vintage Revisited…. A block challenge exhibit 
Throughout our history, a woman’s work has never been completely done. As a result, many quilting projects have been left in various stages of completion.
What would happen if a set of blocks was divided among a number of quilt artists and each was left to create a quilt in her own unique style? In the spring of 2006, quilters of all backgrounds were invited to participate in just such a challenge. As a result, we have a group of 19 talented women who have committed themselves to this exciting two-year project. The group includes art quilters, traditionalists, historians and relative newcomers to this quilting journey.
Over the course of the next two years, six sets of vintage blocks will be distributed to these brave artists. The block is theirs to play with! They can add to it, cut it up, embellish it, recreate it, improve upon it and more. The only requirement is that the finished quilt measure 24” x 24” and that the original block be included in the final project. In all, there will be a total of 120 quilts.
The quilt sets will be available for exhibit and we are currently booking dates for 2007 – 2010. Click Here to See the Current Exhibit Schedule for 2008 through 2010.
