Bass & Flinders Maritime Museum will host four quilts as part of this exhibition, and we’re excited to be part of it.
While you’re visiting, don’t miss another remarkable quilt display in the museum. In 1998, the Tasmanian Quilting Guild Inc. undertook a special challenge to mark the 200-year anniversary of Bass and Flinders’ 1798 circumnavigation of Tasmania aboard the Norfolk. The resulting collection of quilts depicts what Bass and Flinders may have seen on that historic voyage.
These quilts travelled extensively as a suitcase exhibition before eventually finding a permanent home at our museum.
