Textile Museum of Canada

Oh, the places we go! 1 Minute

Currently running at the Textile Museum of Canada is Color Improvisations 2, curated by Nancy Crow.  Since my birthday was coming and Toronto is a day trip, I decided that was the way to spend my day.  While there never seems to be enough quilts in these shows, every quilt there is spectacular in some way.

So much color! – Across 2, by Erica Waaser from Munich, Germany

The museum writes this project developed from Crow’s interest in celebrating the “majesty, strength and energy of large textile works.” Absolutely!  There is still time to take a day trip of your own the exhibit runs through September 23.

Create Something!
