The
Kempsville Library Quilt Display has become a tradition since its inception
over 15 years ago. Carol Jordan, a
former Kempsville Library staff member and a member of the Tidewater Quilt
Guild, envisioned the display of a quilt to cover a large wall located near the
Accounts Desk. This wall area, visible
from all angles of the public floor, was the perfect place to display these
full-sized works of art. The staff began to hang Carol’s original, handmade
quilts for the enjoyment of staff and customers. As the seasons changed, everyone looked
forward to the next featured quilt. Even
though Carol has retired from the library department, she is still an avid
library user and assists us in continuing this tradition. As the seasons change, Carol, the staff, and
members of the Tidewater Quilt Guild lend their quilts for this display. Customers return regularly to see what the
next eye-catching design will be!
