    What a fascinating exhibit! Wish I could travel to Boston to see it. The Texas Quilt Museum in La Grange TX, which is just over an hour away, has been on my list of things to do. I am now motivated to visit that museum. Thank you for a great podcast!

    I am so excited to be seeing this show in less than a week if I am healthy enough. I have my timed ticket already.

    Wonderful and inspiring podcast! I went to university in Boston, and the BMFA was a regular haunt. They do the most amazing special exhibitions, and this one is no exception. Thank you for bringing it closer to us and to the forefront of attention.

    This was an amazing discussion of the exhibit. I almost passed it by but glad I checked it out. The variety and quality of the quilts was fabulous. I wish I could go to Boston to see them in person.

    I had heard of the Exhibit from Mary Fons. Such a wonderful showing of American Quilts. We have been to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts before it it was marvelous. Due the current Pandemic, it is some what probolimic as we have health issues that make the visit unattainable. THANK YOU for the fun interview. You folks rock!

    Oh how I would love to go on a field trip! Although I did not appreciate history much while in school, as I got older I developed a love of all things history. I put the book on my Christmas list and will definitely purchase it if my children don't come through. These quilts are amazing! Thank you Sherri and Chelsi, this was an awesome podcast :)

    This was an informative and very interesting podcast. I purchased the book, Fabric of a Nation: American Quilt Stories, because Suzy Quilts (a blog site) is hosting a book club and this is the book being read. The fun starts in November so there is still time to get the book and join the club. I’ve been randomly reading the stories and have been inspired. Thank you for this episode.

    I went to see this exhibit. If you have an interest in historical quilts, then you'll probably like what you see. I guess I had set my expectations very high, anticipating marvelous color palettes and exquisite workmanship and expertise. That is not what you will find here, with the exception of two or three quilts. The 3-D sphere and the Lisa Butler pieces really knocked my socks off....but personally I was disappointed in the rest of the exhibit . If you live in the Boston area, go see it...but it's NOT worth a cross country plane ticket!!!
