Kudos to the Vermont Quiltsearch team!

Members of the Vermont Quiltsearch team received the President’s Award at the Vermont Historical Society’s annual meeting last fall. The team was recognized for its “meticulous and detailed work to document historic Vermont quilts,” an effort which has gone on since 1979 and which has resulted in the collection of records on more than 6,500 quilts. Richard Cleveland said “We are textile detectives, hot on the chase, hoping to find at every venue exciting, interesting, unusual quilts. Our goal is to capture their stories before they are lost.

Team members Priscilla D. Hatch, Carolyn Fernandez, Richard L. Cleveland and Donna Bister are shown with outgoing VHS President Sarah Dopp, center. The Festival is fortunate to have the team present “The Textile Detectives Are In” at the Festival each year. Listen as the team talks about quilts that visitors bring in to learn about the age, pattern and condition of each. It’s on Friday afternoon and it’s free.
