Last weekend we traveled to see family and attend an anniversary party. I had seen an advertisement in the Utah Quilt Guild newsletter about a quilt show in Brigham City, as part of their Heritage Arts Festival. The quilt show would be in the courthouse. Since we were going to be traveling right through there, I mentioned it to Mike, and we made plans to stop for a quick peek!
The quilts were only labeled with numbers so you could vote for your three favorites, so I am not sure who to give credit to here, but there were some fun quilts to see. I love this quilting related one - a quilt about quilting!
The wool pieces I am pretty sure were made by Sharon Wright, as she was a speaker, teacher and gave a trunk show there. She does amazing things with wool! She spoke at our guild a few years back and showed her wonderful work. I remember back then at least, she dyed her wool using jello! She is a very talented lady.
As we were driving through town in Brigham City, my son-in-law said, "Why are we stopping here? I thought we were going to Logan?" My daughter patted his knee and said, "This is what we do. We're going to a quilt show. You're being initiated." I appreciate my family's support and being good sports when I make stops for quilt shows and/or quilt stores! He was a very good sport too, and to my credit, I only stayed there about a half hour! That might be a record!
Cute baby quilt.
The quilt above is made of wool!
A lot of work went into this garden quilt!
I sure have a lot of projects I want to get busy and do! Quilt shows are always inspiring!
