Quilting Through the Generations

A year ago this month, I attended the Oklahoma City Winter Quilt Show at the Cox Convention Center, and happened upon the booth of the Oklahoma City Community Quilt Guild and a passionate woman named Beverly Kirk.  This meeting has rekindled a love for quilting, that began as a little girl in the home of my great-grandmother Amanda Winslow.  In her home, I learned the simple art of hand-quilting with scraps of fabrics and held on to those moments through adulthood.

 
This year I completed several projects with the support of the Oklahoma City Community Quilt Guild  members.  As a beginning quilter, I feel quite accomplished at the break of a new year of quilting experiences.  Here are my completed works for 2010:
  •  Swing Purse
  • Wall Hanging
  • Red & White Nine-patch - "Family Picnic"
  • Table Runner - 4th of July
  • Log Cabin Quilt - "On Golden Pond"
  • Tool pocket Organizer
  • Savage Quilter -Challenge Quilt Project
  • Dr. Suess Lap Quilt
 
Come join us for a New Year at the Oklahoma City Winter Quilt Show  this year and learn new techniques, reawaken passion for quilting and the arts, and just for fun.
