Dana E. Jones: Pagtinabangay — The Quilts & Quiltmakers of Caohagan Island

You’ll be transported to a tiny island — just 13 acres — in the central Philippines as you enjoy images and stories of the colorful quilts and the more than 100 quiltmakers of Caohagan Island. You’ll see photos of more than 50 of these handmade, one-of-a-kind quilts plus be introduced to the unique techniques developed by these quiltmakers whose tools are simply fabric and scissors, needle, and thread.

Those who view the quilts come away smiling, inspired by the creativity of these women and men.

Dana’s quilts have been exhibited at Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum and as part of the 2018 American Quilt Study Group traveling exhibition. She lives at 9,200 feet in the Rocky Mountains in Gilpin County, Colorado, northwest of Denver.
