quiltury
Quiltury is a portmanteau combining the words "quilt" and "culture." It refers to the practice of creating and appreciating quilts as a cultural expression. This encompasses the historical significance of quilting traditions, the diverse styles and techniques developed across different regions and communities, and the social and symbolic meanings embedded in quilts. Quiltury recognizes that quilts are not merely functional bedding but can serve as artistic canvases, historical records, and vehicles for storytelling and cultural identity.
The study of quiltury involves examining the materials used, the patterns chosen, and the construction methods
