Every year the Houston Quilt Festival puts up amazing exhibits highlighting different types and genres of quilts amongst the award winners. This year is no different, and Bob Ruggiero of Quilts, Inc. wanted to give you a sneak peek of one of the ones coming. He says, "One of the more interesting and thought-provoking exhibits will surely be “Soul Stories.” Curated by noted and innovative art quilters and instructors Luana Rubin and An Marshall, it features works by visionary art quilters who intertwine the narratives of human existence with a meaningful blend of myths, legends, archetypes, stories, spiritual influences, and science."
