20 GOING DUTCH
American Quilts: Chat, Craft and
Cake Lecture
Every quilt tells a story, speaking to us
through its fabric, its pattern, its technique,
the time and the place the quilt was crafted,
and, most of all, through its maker.
Fortunately, we have an expert who understands
the language of her quilts and
is willing to share with us. Susan Cave
Baragwanath will present Conversations
with My Quilts, during a special session of
Chat, Craft and Cake. All AWC Members
and guests are welcome. If you have a pair
of white cotton gloves, please bring them
