« back to classes page
ClassGraphic "Every Quilt Tells a Story" highlights eight quilts, dating from the late eighteenth century to 1929, in URI's Historic Textile & Costume Collection and currently on exhibit in the Textile Gallery in Quinn Hall. All quilts tell stories about changes in textile production and developments in art and design as well as the histories of the makers and recipients. This course will incorporate a presentation on the quilts in the exhibition, a visit to the Textile Gallery, and a "turning" of additional quilts from the Historic Textile & Costume Collection.
