May Show and Tell

Suzanne Hillestad made "Flying Geese and Stars" with red, blue, cream and gold scraps for her Quilt of Valor.  Her patriotic and timely contribution followed Francine's plug that we need more of these special quilts for our service men and women!

 Diana Hess composed, "Autumn at Bear Lake", an original and majestic landscape quilt of Bear Lake in the Autumn.  She took an online landscape class from Susan Brittingham at quiltuniversity.com:
 Marie Haws and Lynette Rose displayed "Boot Scootin'", a bright, fun opportunity quilt made by The Undercover Quilters.  It will be 'opportunitied' at the Days of '47 Rodeo.  Proceeds go to The Cure Starts Now Foundation for pediatric brain cancer research.
 Lil Anderson presented "Log Cabin", a scrappy log cabin set on point.  She put the blocks together like paper piecing without the paper! Demo, please, Lil?!?
 Joann Barr made "Rustic Stars". This BOM from a quilt shop in Las Vegas is comprised of batiks in rich, deep colors, and is all paper-pieced.  She started it in 2010 and finished in 2011.
 Trudy Gibbs displayed "Shadow Burst" made from turquoise and neutral fabrics. This beautiful quilt has significance as a wedding quilt for her first son to be married, such an event!
