AQSG members love to learn about quilts, and we also love making them! If you are maker, the Biennial Quilt Study is a great way to combine the creativity of quilt making with learning about a particular quilt, its maker (if known), style, and technique.
Here’s how it works. AQSG selects a specific design, style or time-period as the theme. Participants are challenged to select an existing quilt that fits the quilt study guidelines and create a smaller replica, interpreting the elements of the original quilt in a new and fresh way.
Your replica quilt may be selected for an exhibit at the next AQSG Seminar and may be included in a traveling exhibit hosted at museums around the country. Above are some examples from the 2018 Quilt Study 200 Years of Solid Color Quilts: Cultural and Regional Distinctions, 1800-2000.
