      I heard a quote once that said, "When life gives your scraps, make a quilt." I am deeply moved and inspired by the artistry of these quilts and the community of African American Women who make them.

      In memory of the the Souls Grown Deep founder, William Arnett. A highly respected, accomplished and generous philanthropist, art collector and patron. But perhaps most of all a massively accomplished father, as evident by his son Harry.
