Quilting Patterns and all Kinds of Quilty Treasures

Quilts with a Story

By Deb - Quiltblox on February 20, 2023February 21, 2023

Every quilter has had that one quilt that inspired them to pick up the needle and try out this thing we call quilting. For me – it was a double wedding ring quilt made by my great-grandmother’s sister. While I never met my grandmother’s sister – her quilts were everywhere in our home. They were used (and abused) daily and many of them perished through the years.

A couple of them survived – and made their way to me. I cherish them to this day – I call these quilts that inspired the beginnings of our quilting journey – Quilts with a Story.

Do you have any quilts with a story that inspired you? if so – there’s a new kind of quilt show coming up and they are looking for quilts that have traveled through time and survived – to share their story with a new generation of quilters. Organized by the Tualatin Historical Society – the show runs March 9 – 11, 2023.

Interested in sharing your Quilt with a Story? Click on the Show Flyer or the Quilt Entry Form above to open and print the files. Don’t delay – the show is coming right up and show organizers would love to see your Quilt with a Story.

One final note: I have it on good authority that 2 particularly interesting quilts will be on display. These two quilts are in the collection of a local quilter – and were originally pieced and quilted by Laura Ingalls Wilder (Author of the Little House on the Prairie series).
