Liberty blog went undercover last night to check out the Quilt 1700-2010 preview and what a magic night, from Tracy Emin talking about the beauty and value of quilts to Sarah Brown perusing the finest on display with her mother. To top it off all waiters were resplendant in lovely Liberty print aprons. This exhibit is truly beautiful and sheds light on a very feminine art form. It opens this Saturday 20th March, but you can swot up now with the Quilt 1700-2010 book ready to buy online here.
I’ll leave you with a lovely quilt quote by Tracy Emin
“Making quilts isn’t just a graphic process, wrapped up with the production of sewing. It involves a lot of thought and love. Just the time involved in the process means many things are discussed and considered concerning life.”
