Saturday, March 14, 2020, Lecture: "Quilt's of the Civil War Era"
Arlene’s first exposure to showing her antique quilts was a Civil War reenactment held in her hometown of Colusa. She did a bed turning of 30 quilts for 900 school children the first day and the following two days were spent showing the quilts to the pubic along with watching the battles fought not 50 feet from her tent! Now retired from administrative work, Arlene is able to concentrate on bringing her antique quilts to guilds and public performances. She also teaches workshops using patterns made from her antique quilts. |
