Women of Taste: A Collaboration Celebrating Quilt Artists and Chefs

A visual feast, this book presents quilts whose designs are based on conversations between fifty pairs of nationally known women quilt artists and prominent women chefs or culinary entrepreneurs. Each pair's personal and professional ideas have been translated into wonderfully imaginative contemporary quilts that will be displayed by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service at numerous venues throughout the United States over a two-year period, beginning in September 1999. 100 color illustrations. Girls Incorporated is a national nonprofit organization offering innovative programs designed to help girls grow into responsible, economically independent women. The Alameda County, California chapter sponsors the "Women of Taste" event.
