Description

Highland Lakes Quilt Guild’s November program presents Marcia Kaylakie a quilt collector, teacher, judge, and appraiser. She is the author of Texas Quilts and Quilters. Marcia is also a researcher, lecturer, and exhibit curator. Marcia was named the 2017 Bybee Scholar of the year for her commitment to the study of quilts and their history. “Marcia's lectures and workshops on American quilting and history often feature antique and vintage quilts from her own collection. She demonstrates the ways in which American quilts reflect the social, political, and economic times in American history. She also teaches classes on quilt care, conservation, storage, and documentation.” Reference Texas Quilt Museum News Archives. We encourage visitors to join our membership.
