The Girls We Left Behind Us
All-Call for Quilts
Did the great-grandmothers in your family create quilts and comforts for their families during the long and weary war years from 1861-1865? The Southeastern Quilt and Textile Museum seeks to honor the women who kept the home-front going while men served miles away from home. These quilts commonly represent extraordinary and heroic efforts to provide for families, raise money for community projects and, at the same time, create items for their own pleasure.In celebration of the Southeastern Quilt and Textile Museum's Sesquicentennial Commemoration of the Atlanta Campaign, the museum will be hosting an exhibit to recognize the efforts of women from all regions of the nation, and their rich story-laden histories, through a juried exhibition selected from participants from across the country.
If you have a Civil War era quilt or a replica that you would like to submit for exhibition, please download and complete the application and mail it to 306 Bradley Street, Suite. C, Carrollton, GA 30117, or email it to info@southeasternquiltmuseum.com. Be sure to let us know if your quilt has a story (or history) that you would like to share, and keep in mind that the quilt can be of any age.
The deadline for application submission is May 30, 2014. For more information, please contact the SQTM at info@southeasternquiltmuseum.com or
