 Quilt Fest quilt show information.

You still have time to get a quilt finished to display at quilt fest.  Here is the information that you need to know. 

August 31, 2026 is the deadline for filling out the form that you are entering a quilt.  If your quilt is not quite finished, fill it out anyway, attach a picture of what is done (this helps with identification), and then finish it.  When you look at the drop off dates and times, choose which one works for you.  Virginia and Debbie, will be traveling from Brigham City to Orem to pick up the quilts.  If you live in a part of the state where they are not picking up, then call them (numbers are listed below) and schedule a time for dropping of your quilt.

  Pioneering Preservation: The Utah Quilt Heritage Photograph Collection in  Special Collections   by  Marriott Library   0 Comments     2 Likes If you have photographs of quilts or other archival documents about quilting to add to the project,  use this form . The art and craft of quilting has been practiced by women from all over the globe for centuries and  the  pioneer women who  came to Utah have certainly earned their stripes in this endeavor. Not only did these women come to  Utah toting  treasured  quilts,  they   remained  prolific in the making of quilts once they settled in Utah.     Utah’s history of quilting points to a rich collection of early American folk art. Today, quilting  remains   a practiced art in Utah, with many quilters being members of the Utah Quilt Guild, which was founded  in 1977.    In order to  preserve the quilts being made, the g...

Todays blog is from Sharon Aposhian Wright whose quilt took Best of Show at quilt fest 2025.  We thank Sharon for sharing her quilt and the process.   Discovering My Armenian Heritage (and a Fourth is Still Pretty Great) Sharon Aposhian Wright I flew with my sister, Diane, to Armenia in October of 2023 to visit our sister, Geri, who was serving a mission there. We ate traditional foods, learned history, mingled with good people, toured monasteries, drove through beautiful countryside, witnessed happy faces in spite of deep poverty, were touched by graciousness and generosity, and were filled with gratitude for our great-grandparents, Zadik and Kathun Aposhian, who left their beloved homeland in 1908 to immigrate to the U.S. shortly before their families were all massacred in the Armenian Genocide. I came home with fond memories and hundreds of photographs. How could I possibly portray the emotions I felt as I visited my ancestral homeland? The answer came when I took a fa...
