See "Quilts of Valor: Countdown to America250" and "Charles Cameron: A Curious Modern Quilter" on Display at the National Quilt Museum

That's right, not one, but TWO brand new exhibitions are now open at the National Quilt Museum in Paducah, KY. The first, Quilts of Valor: Countdown to America250"celebrates the semiquincentennial and features quilts that showcase custom QOV patriotic quilt panels commemorating this historic American milestone." While the second, Charles Cameron: A Curious Modern Quilter, shows how Cameron "employs curiosity to explore modern elements, color and value using a mix of precision and semi-improv techniques."

About Charles Cameron: A Curious Modern Quilter"Charles’ work explores the use of bright colors, color value, and a mixture of precision and whimsey to reinvent more traditional quilt patterns and designs. He is excited by setting rules for color placement and constructing blocks in an efficient, assembly-line fashion; then trimming blocks with a ‘wonky’ tilt and relying on my eyes’ intuition to place the finished pieces in a way that maximizes impact."

 

Charles Cameron: A Curious Modern Quilter is on display at the National Quilt Museum in Paducah, Kentucky now through March 24, 2026.
