Members of the Quilt Alliance were given a private tour of quilts at the American Folk Art Museum as part of "Quilters Take Manhattan 2015." This was a one-of-a-kind experience, and not to be missed. Most of the quilts had a political message, as quilts were one way women were allowed to express their patriotic and political preferences.
The lighting was kept dim as a means of protecting the quilts. We have made some adjustments to the images to allow for better viewing.
Thank you to the American Folk Art Museum and the Alliance for American Quilts for making this possible.
