A most interesting array of quilts are hanging in the Colorado State Capitol Building in Denver, Colorado June 2 – August 20, 2009.
Quilts of many colors and patterns to dazzle the eye hung in slender throughout the beautiful setting of the capital.
I took some photos, however your can also view some most at www.coloradoquiltcouncil.com.
Many patterns I have made. The Ohio star and May Basket pattern are particular favorites. My daughter, Jamie, made the Ohio Star in rich purples and turquoise which we used a window covering in my sewing room.
I saw one quilt with reds and greens of a similar pattern I call Star Burst,which is a modification of Nos-Gay for Brides Bouquet. I have four of those started to use up odd and ends of large floral prints. I use the scraps for a triangle block as the block is almost sewn together when you trim it for the Star Burst. Quite an under taking. I have two tops completed with six more to go. Nice to see one finished up.
