This is one of 3 identical 100" x 100" quilts made to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Tennessee Valley Authority. It features black and white photos of memorable events and places depicting life before and after electricity was brought to the southeast in 1933. I had the pleasure of working with Darlene Bakos on this quilt and we were very proud to have this quilt displayed in the West Tower of the TVA facilities in Knoxville, TN. The other 2 sister quilts will have a life of their own. One quilt will be donated for a charity auction and the other will be donated (recipient yet to be determined). The quilt was designed and quilted by me and expertly pieced and bound by Darlene Bakos.Wednesday, September 3, 2008
