A Baltimore woman who is among the Country's premier creators of art quilts is getting ready for a solo exhibit this fall at a Philadelphia gallery.
It's the latest honor for Nancy Crow who works out of a studio in Fairfield County.
Crow says she never meant to make fabric her life.
While studying fine arts at Ohio State in the late 1960s, she says she wanted to be a potter but became allergic to clay dust.
Now her quilts sell for prices ranging from $8-thousand dollars to $75-thousand dollars and have been displayed in museums around the U-S, including the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian is Washington DC.
In September, she'll conduct workshops in Idaho and Switzerland.
