Letort Quilters Biannual Quilt Show

I am very proud to be a founding guild member of the Letort Quilters of Carlisle, PA.  For more information about them, check out www.letortquilters.com. This group has never ceased to amaze me with their work ethic and charity efforts.  They meet twice a month which means they have a lot of programs throughout the year.  And, yet again, they have produced one fantastic quilt show with such a wonderfully diverse selection of quilts.  Here are just a few photos of some of the quilts that hung in the show.

 

“Laurie’s Wedding Quilt” was pieced by Sandy Moore and quilted by Cathy Franks. It was hanging as a surprise at Laurie’s wedding reception.
