- "Nude is Not a Color" Quilt, Made by Hillary Goodwin, Rachael Dorr, and Contributors from around the World, 2017 - Fashion and cosmetics companies have long used the term nude for products made in a pale beige--reflecting lighter skin tones and marginalizing people of color. After one company repeatedly dismissed a customer's concerns, a global community of quilters produced this quilt to oppose this racial bias. To create the shirt designs, the women chose fabric that best represented their own skin tones.
