Inspired by The Nation's Capital

To celebrate our Nation’s Capital, fiber artists from across the country have portrayed key places and events in the Washington DC area. This collection of over 100 original 24” x 24” quilts showcases historic buildings, monuments, landmarks, museums and recreation areas. The collection is a fabric travelogue, enabling viewers the opportunity to see a wide variety of sites from the very familiar to the lesser-known that feature the heart of the city, from the most serious locations to the more playful. Techniques, materials and fiber art skills are as varied as the subjects of the quilts.

Here is a sampling of 5 of the quilts made for this project:
