Preview night for the Patterns in Abstraction exhibit at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta was exciting and surreal for me. Even now, I can’t believe that one of my quilts is hanging in the High Museum of Art. Even though I knew that A Star Among Stars had been acquired by the High, I did not know whether she would be part of the Patterns in Abstraction exhibit.
When I first saw her, hanging all alone on a wall all to herself, I was overwhelmed by her majesty. Then my motherly quilt instincts kicked in and I inspected her to make sure she was hanging straight and flat. (She was). Then I enjoyed the people who enjoyed her. I love talking quilts.
My TEAM was with me, sharing every minute of my joy. It was truly a night to remember and cherish.
I will have much more to say about the other quilts in the exhibit in future posts, but for now, I am savoring the sweetness of joy.
