Grace Latz - From Olympic Rower to Quilt Artist

Today marks the closing ceremonies of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France. To commemorate the moment, we thought we'd squeeze in one more story related to the games as reported by the University of Wisconsin that we just loved. Grace Latz, a former Olympic rower and artist who was just featured in Monday's Textile Talk, "was chosen by the Olympic Museum to lead a workshop for senior citizens, transforming recycle sports materials into a piece of art. With the help of a BERNINA, they created this stunning quilt together!" Click through to see the full quilt and to learn more about how this heartwarming collaboration came to be.
