“What got us through” the Quilt Academy’s lockdown quilt to become a part of the Southwark Museum of Heritage and Culture archives

The QA is feeling pretty chuffed this month as they have now met with the curator of the new Southwark Museum of Heritage and Culture and handed over their ‘What Got Us Through’ lockdown quilt. This new museum replaces the Cuming Museum which was destroyed by fire some years ago. The QA quilt, on permanent loan, will form part of the social history archives. The curator will return to record each stitcher speaking about their square made in response to the lockdowns. It will then be an interactive exhibit.
