Is a Quilt's Highest Purpose Beauty or Message? | The Uncut Thread Forum Launc

Welcome to the inaugural conversation of The Uncut Thread—the Quilt Africa Fabrics forum dedicated to deep, honest discussions about textile art, culture, and social impact. The Tribe is Evolving: We believe every quilter has a powerful message to stitch in their strong voice. This forum is where we stop asking "how to" and start asking "why to" and "what if." Join Miriam Galadima Benson and our first expert panel for a high-impact, live debate on the foundational tension in our craft: When you create a quilt, is its final purpose aesthetic perfection, or a statement that demands attention? SESSION DETAILS Topic: Beauty vs. Message: Is a quilt's primary responsibility to be beautiful, or to communicate a social/political message? Format: Structured Debate with expert panelists and live Tribe Q&A. Date: Wednesday, October 29, 2025 Time: 3:00 PM EST Link to Join Live Chat: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83022702847 YOUR ASSIGNMENT: JOIN THE DEBATE! We need your voice and your examples to make this discussion powerful.
