For more than thirty-five years, Jan Myers-Newbury has explored the interface between hand-dyeing and the piece quilt. Her lyrical and sensuous quilt surfaces have set a high standard for color artistry in the studio quilt domain, of which she has been one of the acknowledged leaders. This exhibition brings together a collection of works that exploit the pole wrapping shibori technique that Myers-Newbury has helped to popularize among non-traditional quilt makers and surface designers.

The talk is free and the public is invited. A reception will follow at the Robert Hillestad Textiles Gallery.
