Textiles and the Triplett Sisters
Upcoming Plans!
We don’t often spend time in our blog talking about Quilt & Textile Collections. We’ve previously used it to showcase ongoing research. However, there are some upcoming plans we need to share with you. First, we’ve decided to focus our energies on the places where we have more interactions with our friends and quilt community. Our website is very static and updating it was difficult, so we didn’t really have much interaction with you, our fellow quilters. So, we’ve decided to let the website go and instead will focus our attention on Facebook, Instagram, and Etsy.
Since our website is going away, we will have a new email address: triplettsisters@gmail.com I’ll continue to be responsible for the email, but you’ll be able to reach both of us at the one email. Regarding all the research on the blog, we hated the idea of that just disappearing, so we are very grateful to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Library who will be preserving that for us. The link is available here, but is in transiton. We will post it again once the transfer is complete. Be sure to follow us on Facebook so you can keep up with us at this link. We also plan to submit longer articles in journals and magazines. I’ll post on our Facebook page when an article is published.
Don’t forget that we have two quilt-a-longs or block-of-the-month for 2025. At the first of the month, we’ll post info relating to the “Civil War Quilt Pattern.” Mid-month the focus will be on “Temptation Realized,” a quilt inspired by the fruit epergne blocks in Baltimore Album Quilts. If you need to purchase the pattern, here is a link to our Etsy Shop. If you haven’t joined our Block of the Month Facebook page, simply follow this link. BTW, you do have to answer questions that allow us to keep botts and scammers out. Finally, we have a new class available on our Bermuda research at this link. It comes with a free book, so it’s a great deal. We look forward to seeing you on Facebook, Instagram, Etsy, and at in-person events. Happy Holidays!
