Red and white quilt show photos... and free stuff !

~Stay tuned for the May giveaway !~

The Infinite Variety: Three Centuries of Red-and-White Quilts show, which we previewed in March, still has the quilting world buzzing. So when the American Folk Art Museum offered us some photos of the show, we jumped at the chance. Plus we learned that there is a free App for iPhone, iPad and Android owners. Quilting goes high tech !  More info on free quilting resources after these gorgeous photos by Gavin Ashworth.





These photos make us feel as if we were walking around at the show.  A digital guide to the exhibition, including images of all 650 quilts on display, is available as a free app for the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Android smart phone. Get the links at the Infinite Variety web page.  (For a few hints, also see the blog post by Peggi at Seams to Be You and Me.)

And did you know that there are more free Apps for iPhone-toting quilters?  Check out the highly-rated QuiltingCalc by Robert Kaufman fabrics.  Oh, and the free quilting podcasts by Alex Anderson or by Pat Sloan. You don't even need an iPhone to listen to podcasts... you can listen online (the iTunes software is free)!
