Australia Quilts – exceptional quilts from the great southern land
In September 2014, Carrefour Européen du Patchwork/European Patchwork Meeting celebrated its 20th anniversary in Alsace, France. Australia is guest country of honour from outside Europe and I curated a special invitational exhibit of 34 “exceptional quilts from the great Southern land” ranging from traditional quilts to contemporary textile art.
