Marla Ferguson was our guest speaker at the CO West Quilt Guild meeting the other night. She spoke about "putting your feelings and emotions into quilts." She told us a little about herself, shared several of her quilts and her journey in quilt making, and how quilting has helped her through some difficult times.
She is a fantastic speaker and her lecture touched a lot of people. Her quilts are really amazing too - she is an artist! Here she is holding one of her quilts and I snapped a few photos of the rest of the quilts as they were spread out for us to look at.
She also sells greeting cards with pictures of her quilts on them. I like this idea! These would make fun gifts for family and friends if you have some great photos of your own quilts that would look nice on the front of a card!

That greeting card idea is a great idea!!
