Paul Léger Quilts

In May 2012, Paul donated Nos Aïeuls to the University of Moncton's Acadian Museum. Of 40,000 items donated to the museum, the 15.5' x 8.5' quilt was one of 100 pieces selected for exhibit at its "Acquisitions 10, 2001-2013" show.

Paul's quilt honours the families who founded l'Acadie and includes the names of 305 of the 800 founding families. It reflects how these families have been linked by marriage, their communities and other events over the centuries.

Paul talks about his quilt in an interview in Grand Pré where he photographed his quilt.
