The Museum Quilt Guild wishes to thank everyone who came to our show!
We hope you enjoyed viewing it as much as we enjoyed being able to (finally!!) have a show again.
Many many hands go into making a successful show, and I don't mean to leave anyone out, but very special thanks go to Quilt Show Chair Elaine Lemley and Set-up Chair Cathy Schmeider and her husband, Bill.
Hopefully you can see all of the quilts here - when I get the photo album up. (If the link is here, there's an album. If I do it right, you won't need a password. Stay tuned.)
If that doesn't work, try here. Neither should require a password.
Meanwhile, here are the winners of the awards in our show- minus Viewer's Choice, since those will be announced at our November meeting.
