Migdal Shalom Gallery Quilt Show

My interest and love for quilts started years ago after attending a show that featured “The Quilts of Gees Bend“, quilts made by a community of poor black woman living on a unique plantation along the Alabama river. Quilts tell stories through the materials used and the images portrayed upon them and all you need is one good show to begin your journey along the quilters road.
The Centennial Quilt Show, at the Migdal Shalom Gallery in the Shalom Towers in Tel Aviv; is a collection of local color created by the Israel Quilters Association. These contemporary hand made quilts are a mix of seaside scenes and objects of monumental interest commemorating life in Tel Aviv over the last 100 years.
These are some of my favorites but there are many more that are not featured here, there are about 80 colorful quilts in the show.
You can view the show at The Migdal Gallery: Ehad Ha’am 9 Tel Aviv. Hours: SUN – TH 9:00 – 18:00, FRI 9:00 – 13:00 through March 20th. Free Admission, North entrance lobby.
* The show is brought to us by The Israel Quilters Association, The Migdal Shalom Tower and The Tel Aviv-Yaffo Centennial.
