Lecture: "Quilts with a View: The New Landscape Tradition"
 
American artists, including needle workers, have naturally turned to the land for inspiration. This lecture
touches on the appearance of landscape in antique quilts, looks at the diverse views and viewpoints of
contemporary quilters and, on a personal note, includes a few of Carol Anne’s expressive landscape quilts
in slides and in person.
