It's such a beautiful venue for hanging art…. quilts.
Here goes:
The quilts were hung, 3 stories high in the central, north and south rotundas
 |
| I'm just noticing how they mimic the ceiling |
And here are some of my favorites:
 |
| "College Bound" by Nola Greenwald |
 |
| "Starry Night" by Flo Williams |
 |
| "Circles of Life" by Marsha Loewenberg (quilted by Jeannie Swanson) |
 |
| "Golden Wedding Ring" by Neoma Garl, made for a friends 50th wedding anniversary and hand quilted! |
 |
| "Walk the Path" by Pat Moore. (Quilted by Rita Meyerhoff). |
and….. one of the reasons I was so keen to go
 |
| my "Tail Wind" quilt |
 |
| Such an important doorway, flags and all. |

If you want to see the show, it's open until October 10th, 2013. Monday through Friday 7:30 am until 5:00 pm. No weekends. If you want you can vote for your favorite quilt when you go. There are so very many greats ones to see.
We just finally got to the Capitol on Friday. I loved the show!! What a neat venue. Colorado really has a gorgeous capitol building. And what a fun location for yours. :)
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! So awesome!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing show and your quilt looks spectacular!
ReplyDeleteThis is breathtaking. I'm so jealous! Your quilt looks so impressive hanging there in the doorway; you should be very proud of your achievement.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like night when these were taken--is the quilt show done mainly at night so as to stay out of the way of the legislators during the day?
I just discovered your blog, and have to say that your list on the left is a really good idea to keep track of ideas for things to make. I clicked through on some of the links, and now I think I'd better start a list, too!
