Why did quilting become so popular in America when it languished in Europe? Why were there overwhelming national quilting trends rather than a myriad of regional ones in the history of American quilting? These are questions Leslie Bellais, retired Curator of Social History at the Wisconsin History Society, will attempt to answer in her presentation on the history of American quilting from the colonial era to the Bicentennial. To register, please call the library at 608-882-2260.
