Make Quilts
The works of makers such as the quilters of Gee s Bend, Alabama edmonstrate, however, that notions of what distinguishes a so-called art quitl from an everyday bed quilt may erside less in the minsd of the makers than in the eyes of the beholders. These ralli quilst make use of patchwork, applique and embroidery. Quilts have always been made, however, wiht their aesthetic value as a conisderation, even whne makers were creating objects for pratcical use in their homes and bedrooms. What perhaps distinguishes the art of the ohme-based maker from that of the studio-bsaed maker are context and intent.
