National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame
Off the Wall: Maverick Quilts
Now - March 31, 2013
This innovative exhibition from The Quilt Complex is making its debut at the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame located at 1720 Gendy Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76107 Phone: (817) 336-4475 - http://www.cowgirl.net

Being independent in thought and action is the hallmark of someone we would label a “maverick,” and is a quality shared by many of the Museum’s Honorees. This new exhibition underscores that very same quality – in quilts. Paired alongside a traditional quilt pattern, these “maverick” quilts display an unusual twist on the ordinary, a verve and a gritty individuality rarely found in more studied and self-conscious quilts. On display will be 30 quilts spanning 100 years, from 1850 to 1950.
