Best of Show 2010-Sunset and Sandhill Cranes by Joanne Baeth
The Denver National Quilt Festival VI opens today, April 28 and runs through May 1. It will be held at the Denver Merchandise Mart.
There will be many special exhibits including Bonnie Leman's Anniversary Sampler created in 1994 in anticipation of the Quilter's Newsletter Magazine's 25th Anniversary. Forty-nine of Bonnie's friends contributed to the large center blocks including those by Paula Nadelstern, Jinny Beyer, Nancy Crow. The sixty border blocks were made by her children, other family members, and the staff of Leman Publications. Since it was a group project, there were a few problems along the way, but all was resolved and the quilt was presented to Bonnie on the anniversary date of September 21st. This quilt was a complete surprise to Bonnie and she kept it displayed in her home for the rest of her life. You won't want to miss seeing this quilt.
Teachers this year include: Bobbie and Joel Bergquist, Debora Konchinsky, Dierdra McElry, Jeananne Wright, Karen Turchan, Marjan Kluepful, and Pepper Cory. And as always, there will be vendors galore.
(P.S. Keep your eyes open, you might run into TQS Editors Lilo Bowman or Mary Kay Davis loose on the show floor.)
