Legacy Projects > Quilting in Community: A Celebration of a Southern Indiana Amish Tradition Quilting in Community: A Celebration of a Southern Indiana Amish Tradition

Quilting in Community: A Celebration of a Southern Indiana Amish Tradition. This exhibition will focus on the contemporary quilts, quilt makers and community of the Southern Indiana Amish. The exhibits on display are drawn from the Morton Quilt Collection and related archival information and research. The Morton Quilt Collection was donated to the University of Southern Indiana in 2013. 

In addition to displaying the quilts, there will be narrative labels based on research from the donor’s personal records, information about the quilting community and quilting techniques as it relates to the Southern Indiana Amish. After this exhibit is closed, there will be a lasting body of knowledge to share about the Amish quilting tradition through an on-line exhibition.
