Shape Shifting Over Time

Explore the world of quilting through the work of Lynne Lee. Quilts and quilting have evolved over the years. Originally quilts were made as essential household items to provide warmth, reduce drafts, use up extra pieces of fabric, and add colour to homes. Quilts were made by following a pattern, using cardboard templates or perhaps newspapers to define shapes that would then be pieced together. Over time they have come to be recognized as art.
