NEWS FROM AAQ

The Alliance for American Quilts is a very whorthwhile organization that does so much to help promote and document the history of our quilt world.  As of Dec. 8, 2008, they've added a new interactive  tool to their website.  It's called 'wiki', and works like the popular online encyclopedia.  Documenation Projects, Museums, and Oral History Index are now linked. Browsing these areas is especially easy, however you must create a FREE user account to access it.  More information can be found at www.allianceforamericanquilts.org

Additionally, it was announced, AAQ will be the recipient of a $100 donation for each registered participants for Deb Roberts' 13-day "Journey of American Quilt History" starting March 26, 2009.  This tour sounds like a fabulous American experience where the highlight will be viewing rare collections.  To learn more about this tour, connect with Deb Roberts.  for details.
