Quilt Show at UNB ,Jan 17-Feb 28th 2014

Good morning CMQG Members:

There are posters up at UNB for an upcoming quilt show...This was in Halifax at the same time as the Canadian Quilt Association's National Show in 2012, I believe.  Have you seen it?  If not, here is the information from the UNB Visual Arts website:

The Secret Codes

January 17 – Feb 28
artist: The Vale Quiltmakers Association of Nova Scotia
curator: David Woods

THE SECRET CODES

 is a collaboration between the Vale Quiltmakers of
New Glasgow and artist, curator David Woods. The patterns are derived
from a collection of drawings created by Woods between 2000-2001 while
traveling to Nova Scotia’s Black villages collecting stories and
artwork for a book project called The Sacred Missions (unpublished).
Quiltmakers chose drawings from this collection that spoke to their
own experience and created quilted interpretations of them. An open
call for submissions also yielded quilts from individual quiltmakers,
quilting groups and private family collections from across the
province.
