A Quarry Book by Sandra Sider
This new book is a tribute to the many ART QUILT makers around the world.
Dr. Sandra Sider sought submissions in 2014 for a spot in the new book and many quilters quickly responded. The jury selected the featured artists along with Dr. Sider. Sider is a New York quilt artist and independent curator, who has published articles and reviews concerning fiber art and other aspects of visual culture for three decades. Her graduate degrees include an M.A. in art history from the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University. She was President of Studio Art Quilt Associates (2010-2013), and is currently Curator for the Texas Quilt Museum.
