New Hoover Exhibit Features 24 Heirloom Quilts
January 23 - March 21, 2010

This temporary exhibit features selected quilt patterns as they have evolved over nearly 100 years from 1850 - 1940. Quilt collector Nancy Pfutzenreuter has selected 24 favorite quilts from her outstanding collection for display. She chooses the quilts because of their workmanship, the fabrics, colors and patterns used, their general condition, and their history and age. This display features quilts from three distinct quilt traditions: Amish and Mennonite designs; Classic Applique designs; and the Unique and Unusual quilts.
