I'm sure the light from behind really made these quilts shine.

Glad to hear, by the way, that the museum is still going strong.

My brother has run in the Boston Marathon, and my oldest son runs marathons and ultra-marathons, but I don't think he's ever run the New York Marathon.<br />MUST see the American Folk Art Museum next time I'm in NY visiting my daughter.
