Quilt Scholarship Podcasts

I am always lurking around on the internet. Some of you are already aware of this wonderful University of Nebraska Quilt museum. While loading up my iPod, I noticed that they have some very good video and audio lectures on quilting. They are wonderful and very scholarly, so you know your getting some very interesting information on old quilts. I thought I'd share this with all of you. I listened to this one: "Modern, Yet Anti-Modern: Two Sides of the Late-Nineteenth and Early-Twentieth Century Quiltmaking" by Marin Hanson" and it was wonderful.

If you are an iPod user, go to the iTunes Store when you open your software. Search on "quilt" and scroll down. You'll see a section called "iTune U" You'll find these same videos and audio files there on the icon titled: ""International Quilt Study Center & Museum"... you can make your listening more portable by loading them on your iPod! I listen to these when I'm down in the sewing room and have many hours of fun listening to them.

If you are NOT an iPod user, Click on "Quilt Scholarship Podcasts", above, then download the file you'd like to listen to. Once downloaded, your computer will open it and start playing. Its as easy as that... for all you NON-computer saavy users. I hope you'll try them!
