Bosna Quilt Werkstatt
Great modern design with intricate hand quilting // Bosna Quilt Werkstatt testifies of cooperation between women from different worlds. The workshop came into being in 1993 during the Bosnian war, at the Galina refugee hostel in Vorarlberg, Austria. The unique textile creations are designed by Lucia Lienhard-Giesinger in Bregenz and are then hand-sewn by eleven women in Goražde and Sarajevo.
