On Sunday, February 4, the Wilmot Historical Society will present a program on quilts featuring Pamela Weeks. Binney Family Curator of the New England Quilt Museum, she is author of several articles on quilt history and has published a book on Civil War Quilts.

Pamela lectures nationally on quilt-making and quilt history and uses quilts to tell stories of the Civil War, women’s history, and industrial history. “Quilt history is full of myths and misinformation as well as heart-waring tales of service and tradition. Quilting is not just an American art; nearly every world culture that has cold weather uses quilted textiles.”

Pamela Weeks weaves a world history, women’s history, industrial history, and just plain wonderful stories into her presentation. Participants are invited to bring one quilt for identification and/or story sharing.

The program, which starts at 2 p.m., will be held at the WCA Red Barn next to the post office in Wilmot. Refreshments will be served starting at 1:30.

This program is sponsored in part by the NH Humanities to Go program. More info at www.wilmothistoricalsociety.org/.
