Quilts and Such








Founding members of the Utah Quilt Guild: Carol Bitner, Hal Cannon, Jean Christensen, Janet Clark, Mary Alice Collins, Elizabeth Darley, Margaret Fairbourne, Ruth Garbett, Nina Grimes, Carol Hatch, Roberta James, Marian Johnson, Joy Knowlton, Connie Jean Kralik, Faires Miner, Carol Morgan, Beth Ann Neville, Phyllis Owen, Verda Reed, Nancy Richards, Ethel Towley, Elizabeth (Tibby) Simons, Frances Snyder, Cynthia Sturgis. This is a quote from the deseretnews.com for 9/10/07. There is an article about the Utah Quilt Guild. You will note that Carol Hatch is listed as one of the founding members. I am including a picture of Carol's Christmas Star quilt. We stopped by the Utah State Fair today. There was a star pattern quilt on display there as well as some other patterns. One of the great quilts made by Carol was designed after the colors and pattern of the tile in the first floor center hallway of the Salt Lake City and County Building. I took a picture of it today and included with this post. Phillip has the original quilt in his custody. I have always considered it a monumental achievement of Carol's. I took some other pictures at the fair. They may be subject matter for a future post.
