Block by Block: Women, Quilts, and Family History

Throughout American history, women have used quilting to express their support for different political and social causes. They have quilted their beliefs, block by block, into their quilts. These quilts have been used to keep those fighting wars warm, to guide those traveling on the Underground Railroad, and to memorialize those we have lost. This Women's History Month, Dallas quilter and lecturer Denise Bartosh will help us explore women's quilting history and vintage quilts. 

Bring a 5" x 5" block or square of fabric to make a community quilt to be displayed in the Fine Arts Unit. Attendees will also tour the Creative Spaces: Fiber Arts Workroom.
