Last week a few of the ladies of our church took a little field trip to the
Church History Museum in Salt Lake City to see a quilt exhibit.
It was awesome!
There were contemporary quilts...
This one had a mixed media feel to it.
There were historic quilts...
There were antique samplers...
Three dimensional work. Can you see that tiny stitching? It's all hand quilted.
If you're anywhere near Salt Lake City it's worth the time to go have a look.
I think you'll be happy you did.

What FUN! I Love your pictures! I have also taken pictures of quilts at the Church History Museum(several years ago). I would love to be on your field trip! I will have to visit again when I am in Utah.
Thanks for sharing!
Have a great weekend!
The amount of work that goes in to making a quilt is huge! I need to go, even if it does that an hour to get there!
I just love quilt shows. These were wonderful examples of the hard work and handiwork of some talented women!
Blessings,

The makings of a beautiful quilt is a work of art.
which I don't have.
My mom however was a great quilter. She'd enter some of hers in fairs and would win ribbons. I have one that I cherish.
It is a stitch of love.
Thanks for the info about this show Sue! I knew it was there, but wasn't really sure what exactly it was like - think I'll go check it out now!
I love all the quilts and I really love that dress. I think I was born at the wrong time! LOL
