Reunion at a Quilt Show

August 17, 2012 — When my cousin, Jane, who I hadn't seen in almost 50 years, emailed me that she was coming to my city to attend a quilt show, I jumped at the chance to meet her. We did indeed meet and spent a few hours reminiscing while admiring quilts from all over the world. As the two senior members of our extended family, we have similar memories and experiences. It was great to talk to someone about people and places only we two have witnessed.

The show was the World Quilt Show — New England X and the premier of the 2012 World Quilt Competition XVI. I regretted not bringing my camera the day I met Jane, so I returned the next day (it was a three-day show), camera in hand, and got a series of over 50 photos and a video.
