Upcoming & Recent Talks

TEXTILE TALK, September 2, 2pm ET

Quilt of Souls

with Phyllis Biffle-Elmore and moderator Karen Baker

REGISTER

Join us on September 2 at 2PM EDT as we revisit our presentation Quilts That Speak: What History Has Buried with author Phyllis Biffle-Elmore. Writer of Quilt of Souls: A Memoir, Phyllis will share more from her grandmother who was a master quilter. Made from the clothing of deceased family members, friends, and neighbors, each of the quilts Grandmother Lula made held the stories of lives lived. Phyllis encourages us to reflect upon our own Quilt of Souls and challenges us to remember the history of quilting and the power embodied in these lives and objects.

This event is free and open to the public; registration is required.
