Those interested in traveling contemporary quilt
shows should also check out the Museum of the American Quilters' Society www.quiltmuseum.org in Paducah,
KY. They have annual "New Quilts from an Old Favorite" design contest
based on a traditional pattern. Once exhibit is over at MAQS museum,
exhibit tours for about two years. We found it to be very worth while,
economical (compared to other traveling exhibits), and always well attended as
AQS/MAQS names were very recognizable to quilters in the region.
