Quilt artists are mostly moonbats, too. Someone tried to put together an exhibit of election-themed quilts for the recent International Quilt Festival in Houston, and while they tried to make it bipartisan, there were only Obama quilts. Art quilt exhibits are also heavy on the "social justice" and "anti-war" crap, too (the 2004 and 2006 IQF had several Bush-bashing quilts; "racial justice" is a popular theme, too). I think there might be one or two conservative quilt artists, but their work is not political (landscapes, color studies). (One of my favorite quilters--I took a class with her in October 2004--went cat-poop crazy with BDS after Kerry lost; the quality of her work has really gone downhill. It saddens me.)
