House of Blues Boston
In 2008 the House of Blues art department asked me to participate in the making of these large scale folk art inspired quilts, 37 quilts in all were made over the course of the summer by a small team of sewers and artists.  15 of the quilts were hung in the mezzanine of the Boston House of Blues.  Presumably the rest of them will go up in future HOB's.
