This Log Cabin - Barn Raising variation quilt was featured on all the promotional materials for the Museum Of Modern Art, Kyoto's American Quilts exhibition, which was on view from July 4 to August 8, 1976 in Japan's ancient capital of Kyoto. Just as at the Whitney four years earlier, the Holstein/van der Hoof quilts attracted unusually large audiences.
