description
To celebrate the anniversary, I designed a quilt using 20 blocks, each block representing one year the Quilt Alliance has been in operation. All the blocks are different – some were easy, some were challenging as I am sure the twenty years have been. 5 of the 20 blocks consist of words which express my quilting experience, thus continuing the cycle and mission of storytelling since the start of QA in 1993.
