Canadian Society of Decorative Arts presents Canadian Quilts and Their Makers and an online presentation.

Join Alberta Craft Calgary for cookies, coffee and a Zoom presentation about 19th century quilts and the incredible women who made them.

Canadian Quilts and Their Makers:
Presented by Prof. Lisa Binkley of Dalhousie University

Professor Binkley will explore nineteenth-century Canadian quilts—from homespun and patchwork to appliqué and whole-cloth examples—to reveal what they tell us about the social, cultural, and economic lives of their makers and users. She will also examine how the period’s dramatic technological changes transformed quilting practices.

Join us for coffee and cookies while enjoying this web talk with fellow creatives.
