Quilts of Hubert Ver Mehren: From Giant Medallions to Elegant Embroidery. Now through July 26, 2025.
Hubert Ver Mehren will be inducted into The Quilters Hall of Fame this summer for his significant impact on the quilt world in the 1930s. Ver Mehren’s quilt patterns are considered some of the most complex and dramatic designs of the day. He marketed his patterns anonymously or under pseudonyms so he is largely unknown and TQHF feels it is time that he is recognized for his influence on twentieth century quiltmakers! Stop in to see Ver Mehren’s quilt designs at The Quilters Hall of Fame, 926 Washington Street, Marion, IN. We are open Tuesday – Saturday, 10am – 4pm.
This exhibit has been made possible in part by Indiana Humanities, “Keep the Humanities Alive in Indiana.”
