Unifying Threads: Art Quilts by Beyond the Borders

by | Nov 24, 2008

Visit this art quilt show in the Artists Hall at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft from October 24 – December 21. Unifying Threads showcases beautiful art quilts by the contemporary art-quilt group, Beyond the Borders. The Houston-area group has been meeting for over nine years on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at Quilt ‘N’ Sew in Katy, Texas. Their goal is to embrace creativity, while coloring outside the lines of traditional quilting. Juried by HCCC’s Curator of Fine Craft, Gwynne Rukenbrod, the show includes 24 pieces, ranging from large-scale traditional-style quilts to postcard-sized quilt collages that demonstrate a wide variety of themes and techniques. See the Current Exhibitions page for complete information and Gallery Hours. For more information on the quilt scene in Houston, visit the Quilt Guild of Greater Houston.
