The sixth biennial Quilting in the Red Rocks Quilt Show, sponsored by the Delicate Stitchers Quilt Guild, will be held at the Grand Center, 182 N. 500 West, the weekend of February 26 and 27. The hours are Saturday, February 26, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, February 27, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free. Quilt guild members, and others in the community, have been busy with their creations in anticipation of this very popular event. Antique, traditional and art quilts, quilted home décor and wearable art will be on display, along with many quilted raffle items made and donated by guild members. On Saturday, Heather Lofstrom, of Hi Fashion Fabrics in Grand Junction, CO, will teach an all-day class on a new technique for Attic Windows. The class fee is $55, which includes a book. On Sunday, Kari Harvey, also of Hi Fashion Fabrics, will teach an all-day class on Embellishing an Art Quilt. The class fee is $70, which includes the fabrics necessary for the class. Registration forms can be picked up at It’s Sew Moab, 40 W. Center. Crystal Day, owner of It’s Sew Moab quilting shop, will be in the Merchants Mall, along with other vendors from Utah and Colorado. They will offer fabrics, patterns, threads and books and notions, as well as quilt appraisals Full of Hot Air by Laura Senter Three Sheeps to the Wind by Sandra Davey (for a fee). Moab quilter, and guild member, Sandra Starley, is now one of less than 100 accredited quilt appraisers in the nation; and one of only two in Utah. Door prizes will be given hourly. Come and enjoy the old and new in quilting! The Delicate Stitchers Quilt Guild was founded in 1998 by a group of women who realized there were a great many quilters in Moab and the surrounding area. They also recognized the need for an organized group that would foster this fiber art form. Monthly meetings are held the second Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Grand Center, 182 N 500 West, in Moab. There is a lesson given at each meeting and members bring their projects, completed or in progress, for “Show and Tell”. The Guild participates in many charitable causes and is currently working with the Grand County RSVP program to make quilts for children and families going through personal crises. Dues are $15 per year. All quilters, and those interested in quilting, are welcome! Be sure to mention that Out Standing in Her Field by Lou Gostlin you read about the quilt show in Moab Happenings!
