Historic Map of the Swannanoa Valley 

I worked on this for over a year, and gave it to the Swannanoa Valley Museum in 2010. It shows the settlements, communities, and transportation routes in the valley from the 18th century to present. Topographic lines are accurately represented in quilting. Features are color-coded by time period, with each time period featured in its own legend. This is a ‘whole cloth’ quilt, with each feature hand-embroidered. About 5 by 6 feet. Property of the Swannanoa Valley Museum, and on public display near the entrance.
