Textiles: More Than Words Can
Say
The Dufferin County Museum & Archives main
exhibit for 2011 will feature a wide range of textiles specifically selected
from the Museum’s extensive textile collection. Handmade fabrics such as
coverlets and woven blankets represent the pioneer period. Examples of
Victorian to Contemporary fashion certainly will prove that everything old
does become new again. Fashion accessories such as jewelery, fans, and shoes
strengthen the exhibit. Quilts and hand hooked rugs represent the skill and
artistry of our local residents from 1860 to 1960. For collectors this show
is a must see and includes literally thousands of textile and
textile-related artifacts.
