Vintage Quilt -- 2011 AHS Quilt Show
QUILTING BY THE RIVER 2011
2011 was the 26th year of the Alma Historical Society's annual quilt show. As always, the show was a celebration of a true American art form. Quilts are from local and regional quilters. Included in the show were applique quilts, crazy quilts, art quilts, sampler quilts and traditional patchwork pattern quilts. In addition to new quilt projects, the show also included restoration projects of antique and vintage quilts.

Quilts have evolved from a necessity to keep warm in the cold Wisconsin winters to works of art that are cherished and passed down from generation to generation. Many can recall the soft colors, comforting designs and warmth that came from hugging an old family quilt. Come visit the Quilt Show and step back to that familiar time and stand in awe as you have the opportunity to view the craftsmanship of our local quilters.
