Final Weekend for Quilts 20/20

It was a couple of years of concern for me to work on this exhibit, and this is its last week at the Susquehanna Art Museum. From left, a bars quilt from the Pilgrim/Roy Collection, a ninepatch from the LancasterHistory.org collection, Dinah Sargeant's piece, and Kathy Loomis' work. All knockouts.
