Join curator Margaret Lee to explore these beautiful utility quilts. For over 150 years Derry ~ Londonderry was the largest producer of shirts in the world, with over 8,000 women at one time working in the industry, and 45 factories within the city. The factories sold the off-cuts to their predominantly female work force who recycled the fabrics into clothing and quilts. Image courtesy of DCSDC Museum and Archive Collections.
