  • The Engineer Who Could: Ernest Haight’s Half-Century of Quiltmaking

    Ernest B. Haight—a David City, Nebraska, farmer, a 1923 Phi Beta Kappa, and 1924 agricultural engineering graduate from UNL—was a prolific quiltmaker from 1935 – 1986. This exhibition presents Haight’s quiltmaking as an extension of engineering processes and in the context of his family, religious, and community life and gender norms on the Great Plains.
