Abingdon Museum: Textile Alphabet Exhibition

A quilting exhibition inspired by the alphabet in its many forms. Quilters from three local groups have risen to the creative challenge of interpreting alphabets and letters using many techniques. These range from depicting a single modern letter, medieval forms on silk to whole alphabets in books and quilts and a tactile version devised for blind children. There is a joint project of an Abingdon Alphabet portraying the history, people and places of our town. There are demonstrations and workshops. We regret that the exhibition is on the first floor and does not have disabled access.
