Custer, the Seventh Cavalry, and the Little Big Horn

Women of the West
Catalog of photos of a touring exhibition of Art Quilts by Ginny Eckley and Susan Ennis, Art Dolls by Janet Bodin, Beadwork by Kay Hendricks, and Digital Art Quilts by Kim Ritter. Ginny Eckley and Susan Ennis had successfully created several collaborative art quilts when they decided to ask Kim Ritter to collaborate with them. After many false starts, they decided to create works in the western theme that Kim was already working on and to try out some of the digital printing options Kim had been using since 2004. They added their own spin by painting and stenciling on top of the printed layer. Janet Bodin joined the group a year later, creating 7 art dolls. Ritter, then realized her quilts would look great with some hand beading, and she asked her mother, Kay Hendricks to add beadwork to her quilts. Hendricks has been making and collecting western beadwork 40 years. She has a world class collection of Native American art, jewelry and beadwork. Shown at the International Quilt Festival in 2019.
Gathering Strays
Celebrated folklorist and author Jim Hoy has spent most of his life living in the heart of the famed Flint Hills of Kansas and documenting and celebrating his fellow Kansans and plains folk. Like rounding up stray cattle in a rolling pasture, Hoy has gathered over a hundred stray stories, tales without a single theme or unified narrative, and corraled them up here for the very first time.

In Gathering Strays, Hoy gives us a collection of stories about Kansas, the Great Plains, and Wester...
