Nebraska State Historical Society Brown Bag Lecture Series
Throughout history, quilters have been recording their personal memories and stories in quilts. "Memory Quilts" was recorded on Thursday, October 21 at the Nebraska History Museum, 15th & P Streets, Lincoln, NE.
Sheila Green and Shirley Chaffin share their research on quilts that evoke memories including signature quilts from the 1830's and today's computer generated photo-transfer.
Ms. Chaffin is a Charter member of the Nebraska State Quilt Guild and the Lincoln Quilters Guild and has been quilting for 34 years. She created the Nebraska State Quilt Guild raffle quilt in 2002.
Sheila Green is Past President of the Lincoln Quilters Guild, Education Chair for the Nebraska State Quilt and has been quilting since 1998.
this is a valuable resource. without wanting to hurt anyones feelings, the speakers might attract a younger audiences attention if they spoke with more enthusiasm. The messages here are important. A great deal of information is made available, in mono tone. Such vibrant stories deserve a more colourful presentation. Thankyou for sharing, I hope to see more vibrance in the future.
