Quilting Women
- 1976 ----- color ----- 27 min ----- 16mm
- A warm and joyful celebration of women artists who with gentle modesty create works of art in textile. Traces the entire process of quilt making from piecing to the finale of a quilting bee. Much in the same manner of the musing reminiscences and friendly confidences that go along with all phases of the handicraft, quilting women's voice-over comments accompany the film, remarking on various aspects of the art--the origins of the generations-old patterns, the time and skillful patience required, the satisfaction of visible accomplishment and the entertaining companionship offered by women working together over a quilting frame.
- Topics: (Art, Community Life, Women Studies)
