The Oregon State Fair is going to have an installation of original art quilts during its run from August 27-September 6, 2010. The idea behind the exhibit was for quilters to express their creative impression of a tree in fiber. There will be many quilted trees through which the visitor can wander as if walking through A Quilted Forest. Each piece is approximately 20 inches wide by 8 feet tall. The trees have been imagined literally, figuratively, and in many other ways. Quilters represented include Jean Wells Keenan, June Jaeger, Vivienne Moore, Maureen Erhardt and more.
The exhibit is being held in the Americraft Building in the Creative Living Department at the Oregon State Fair during regular fair hours. A Quilted Forest is sponsored by Greenbaum's Quilted Forest, a 110-year-old, third generation, Salem family business.
