Whatever one feels about taxes going to support this museum, I am astonished at the amount of condescending ignorance and clear snobbishness this particular article exudes. I seriously doubt the writer did even a miniscule amount of research to learn anything about the quilting world today, which can be found in abundance with a few simple Internet searches. Would this writer even be aware of the tens of thousands of people...men and women of all ages...who are involved with this artistic and expressive activity? I doubt it. Does he or she know that American quilters spend more on their sport than gun owners, golfers, and fishermen? I am quite certain he or she does not. Chiefly, the writer exhibits an attitude that is not only ignorant but antiquated. Go do your research, Mr/Ms writer! THEN, apologize for your insulting and ignorant article.
