In 2018 I was invited to curate an exhibit in 2020 for the International Quilt Museum (IQM) in Lincoln Nebraska. It was originally because of all the shows I go to around the world, so I could showcase some of the amazing talent I see outside the US. However as time went on, because I kept seeing art quilts expressing concern about what is happening to the environment, it came into focus as a project centering on climate change and global pollution. <br><br> You may be familiar with the &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/luanarubin\/albums\/72157676291361927\">Love Your Mother<\/a>&#8221; quilt challenge that eQuilter organized in 2018. It premiered in Houston that year, then traveled to Mexico and Chicago in 2019. This August it will be featured in a gallery at the Birmingham UK Festival of Quilts. If you come to the FOQ you can also come to my lecture on International Quilt Trends on Saturday Aug 1st at 2 pm. <br><br> This new project for the IQM is an invitational exhibit, and will have many big name quilt artists participating. I am humbled and honored by the artists who have agreed to send quilts, who are so passionate about the topic. It includes artists from all over the US, and also the UK, Russia, Canada, Japan and Australia. <br><br> IQM will be making an official announcement soon, but for those of you who might want to come to the opening reception and my lecture, I wanted to give you a chance to SAVE THE DATE &#8211; June 26, 2020. Please make a note of the date on your calendar and join us if you can! The exhibit will run through Nov 29. <br><br> Our daughter Sophie is graduating from high school in 3 months! She has college auditions this month, and will be the lead sound tech on the Boulder High School production of &#8220;Addams Family&#8221; next month. <br><br> I am posting more photos from the Tokyo Quilt Festival this weekend and through this week, so be sure to check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/luanarubin\/albums\">my photo page<\/a>. <br><br> sharing your Passion for Fabric&#8230;
