Recently, a friend took a business trip to Omaha, Nebraska U.S.A. and I told her whatever she did, she must drive to Lincoln to see the International Quilt Study Center and Museum.

She didn’t make it there, however I cannot wait to tell her about their online presence. I just stumbled across Quilt Explorer – one of their destinations off their main page. It’s wonderful.
