🇺🇸 As American as apple pie, quilting is woven into the fabric of the United States’ history, reflecting practicality, artistry and cultural identity. Passed down through generations, these handcrafted artworks tell stories of everyday people, particularly women, whose voices were not included in official records but who still helped shape the nation. Now, those stories are on display at the International Quilt Museum. The exhibition, “Material Nation: 250 Years of American Quilts," is on view through December. Learn more: https://go.unl.edu/aye7
