The Boston Museum of Fine Arts has a show titled “Quilts and Color” (check it out by clicking this link….http://www.mfa.org/exhibitions/quilts-and-color). The quilts looks surprisingly modern as you can see from my two examples below. The first was made in 1879;the second, 1940.
Once experiences these quilts by walking through a large darkened room, with grey walls. Each quilt seems to burst with color , texture and pattern. It is an amazing experience.
