Opening Reception of "Bloom: An exhibition with the Art Quilt Alliance"

Bloom: An exhibition with the Art Quilt Alliance Just as flower petals gather together into single, patterned form, quilts are created by the stitching together of many smaller parts to make a whole. Both the blossom and the quilt are shaped by pattern, labor, unification, and care. The fiber arts, rooted in functionality, have long offered warmth, comfort, and a sense of home. Like flowers within an ecosystem, they are part of a larger cycle of making, nurturing, and tradition. Bloom celebrates what emerges when individual pieces come together, and the community, connection, and legacy fiber arts brings to Columbus, Ohio.
