This exhibit has traveled to 3 venues during the pandemic, and I finally got to see it hanging in person, on the last day. It is bittersweet. However it was also gratifying because I got to meet the docents and hear about the impact this group of Environmental-themed quilts has had on the viewers since January. Our talented group of artist-activists has been able to make a statement about what is happening to our planet, and the wild things that live in those disparate habitats that are being destroyed by climate change and pollution. I am honored to have collaborated with these talented individuals. I hope we can work together again in the future.<br><br>My thanks to the International Quilt Museum in Lincoln NE, the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham UK, and NEQM for collaborating and hosting. Together we have brought this important message to a wide audience.<br><br>I flew in a few days early so I could do some museum-hopping and New England touring with the curator Pam Weeks. Yesterday we saw the Quilt National (Group B) exhibit at the Mystic Art Museum, which was absolutely wonderful. One of the artists was there, and some more quilters wandered in (including some eQuilter customers) so it was great to share another moment with a group of fellow quilters!<br><br>The museum closes in a few minutes and we&#8217;ll be taking down the quilts and packing them up, to go home to the artists after 2 1\/2 years. I spent some quiet moments in the gallery soaking up the moment. Now it is time to move on to the next project!<br><br>Mission of Love is receiving your quilts in the mail every day, and we are raising money to help pay for the shipping expenses to Poland. Thank you for all of your quilts and financial donations to comfort and support the refugees in Ukraine.<br><br>Sharing your love of fabric,<br>Luana<br><br>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/equilterfabrics\">eQuilter&#8217;s Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/equilterfabrics\/\">Pinterest<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eQuilterFabrics\">or Twitter<\/a> pages for Color and Design ideas.<br><br>See Luana&#8217;s Flickr Photo Pages for travel images, comment <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/?fn=nl_20220409193112\">on our blog<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/equilter\">follow us on Facebook<\/a>.<br><br>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/news\/videos\/category\/0\/equilter-videos?fn=nl_20220409193112\">our Video pages<\/a> for interviews and show reviews.<br><br>Quilt\/Travel\/Sponsor Calendar:<br>June 15-18 &#8211;
