<title>Quilts by men at Shelburne Museum</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/20026/20120622/quilts-by-men-at-shelburne-museum</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Jun 22, 2012) Quilt making is traditionally associated with women, but a new exhibit at Shelburne Museum in Vermont focuses on quilts made by men.  Quilts on display include some made by soldiers who were injured in the Civil War, and from boys who were ill in childhood and learned how to quilt from their mothers. The quilts in the exhibit include some from the 1860&apos;s and contemporary innovations. Todd Moe talks with Shelburne’s chief curator Jean Burks, and Joe Cunningham -  aka Joe the Quilter -  who’ll give a lecture at the museum next week.
