Quilts have historically been used as social discourse. Starting perhaps in 1836 with Lydia M Childs who made a cradle quilt exposing an abolitionist viewpoint at a Boston fair. Art is important to life and politics. cshockart.com/2026/02/24/q...

Welcome to #Quiltsky where every post with the word quilt in it ends up!
I would like to attend QuiltCon. I'm not local, but I have family I can visit to make it worth the trip. Just need to see what our schedule is like when it gets closer.
