N.B. exhibition demonstrates versatility of quilting
The newest exhibition at the Chapel Gallery makes it clear how versatile quilt-making can be.
Fabrication, an exhibition from the Rivers’ Edge Quilters, is a display of a variety of quilts made by members of the group. They range from traditional quilt shape to items like purses, and from traditional design to modern.
“A lot of quilt guilds have shows, but they don’t have the fabulous venue like we have here,” Heather Hochbaum, who worked on several of the pieces, said. “To have it presented in such a professional way – it’s spectacular.”
Rivers’ Edge Quilters are a local group who craft quilts and do charity work. Hochbaum said they’ve donated to the Empty Stocking Fund, Interval House and the Lighthouse, among others.
