Small Wonders: Dolls & Miniature Quilts

We’re celebrating textiles throughout March at the Horry County Museum! Join us on Thursday, March 6th at 2 PM as Certified Quilt Appraiser Brenda Grampsas shares a collection of dolls, doll beds and quilts, and other miniature quilts. Learn about the surprising value hidden in these small treasures. Brenda Grampsas is an American Quilters Society Quilt Appraiser, certified in 2005. Brenda has a lifetime of sewing and quilting experience with a passion for all things quilted. Her experience in teaching the “how to” of quilting extends not only to adults but many years of quilting classes with children and teens. Watching others catch the “quilt bug” through her shared trunk shows, lectures and workshops feeds the natural teacher in her. She is inspired by quilts from many eras and is especially fascinated by scrap quilts because of their wide range of fabrics. Brenda is very involved in the restoration of quilts. Teaching others the art of restoration has become advantageous due to the many requests for restoration service. More information can be found on Brenda’s website www.thimbletales.com. The program will be held at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street, Conway SC. This event is free and open to the public.
