Is Female Anatomy Too "Controversial" for the American Quilter's Society?
The organization is also accused of trying to remove an abstract quilt referencing abortion access from a traveling exhibition, according to the artists.

I LOVE vintage fabric from the 1970s. Today I took out my “The Pinewood” print by Ronald Hansen-Denmark, 1970s. Hard to tell from the pic but it dark green and reaches floor to ceiling in my studio.

LIKE FAMILY unlocked insights and memories for me that I could not have accessed any other way ✨ It maps the segregated geography of this family burial-ground and is my take on #mapquilts but there are so many ways — I hope you'll join us for MAPQUILTS *this week* ✨ Link in bio #quiltsky

We’re always right on the cutting edge of history… who knows what’s next? But I like imagining a future when we look back at this time and are amazed at how we were able to sidestep collapse

In 1963, a White boss fired Jessie Telfair for registering to vote. She responded by creating her iconic Freedom quilt—a powerful critique that still resonates. One family knows this story intimately. Does the other? — Front title: JESSIE TELFAIR Back title: THE WHITE MAN WHO FIRED HER #quiltsky

From an old wedding-ring quilt emerges hope: what if humanity’s greatest crisis becomes our finest moment? 🌍✨ — COLLAPSE WE THOUGHT WAS CERTAIN points to a future where humanity not only avoids catastrophe but also creates good lives for everyone 💪 let’s get to work #quiltsky
