In celebration of our 10th anniversary, The City Quilter was pleased to mount an exhibition highlighting the work of the more than 3,500 students that have taken our classes over the past decade. This seven week public showcase of 45 quilts begun in our classroom (and sometimes finished!) took place in the Winter of 2008 at the Williams Club ( www.williamsclub.org ), which is located in midtown Manhattan. The Club graciously offered its wall space, and more than 1,000 visitors enjoyed seeing a wide range of wonderful quilts. |
