1994

By: Goldsborough, Jennifer F.

Jennifer F Goldsborough, as chief curator at the Maryland Histori­cal Society in Baltimore, directed the research leading to the major two-part exhibition Lavish Legacies: Baltimore Album Quilts 1845-1855, held from March to November 1994. She is co-au­thor, with Philippa Glanville, of Women Silversmiths 1685-1845: Works from the Collection of The National Museum of Women in the Arts published by Thames and Hudson.

​When AQSG added Uncoverings articles to the Quilt Index, they omitted all the illustrations, for lack of permissions. Although the articles found in the QI (1980-2010, 2012-2016) lack illustrations, they link to quilts, essays, special collections, and documentation projects across the Quilt Index, introducing them to a wider audience. The permission issues have since been resolved and in 2024, AQSG completed adding all the Uncoverings volumes from 1980-2023 to the Digital Commons@University of Nebraska-Lincoln. They are completely searchable and include all the illustrations. You can find, Uncoverings 1994, Volume 15, at this link, https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/aqsg-uncoverings/13/.
