Autumn Conversation

by the Forsyth Piecers and Quilters Guild of Winston-Salem 

Opening Reception 5-7pm on Friday, October 5th.

Forsyth Piecers and Quilters Guild of Winston-Salem is made up of approximately 130 women and men interested in promoting and supporting quilting and related fiber arts. Members are dedicated to spreading their enthusiasm to the community through charitable donations of quilts on a regular basis to young patients at Brenner’s Children’s Hospital and senior citizens in assisted living facilities. We also make several hundred nap blankets every year for children in Equity Plus Schools, share our work and expand our skills at monthly meetings, hold exhibitions and present a bi-annual quilt show.

 This collection, containing a selection of quilts made in fall and Halloween colors, is notable for the remarkably different interpretations of the theme. These include a broad variety of quilt designs from traditional, to art and modern quilts, which range in size from wall hangings (measuring approximately 20 x 20 inches) to 80 x 90 inch bed quilts.
