Our Members Show at the Folsom Quilt and Fiber Guild, 2014

The Folsom Quilt and Fiber Guild, as always, put on display some of the finest work by very talented artists. The art quilt display was especially stunning. A real treat and inspiration for us all. 

Two of our members entered quilts in this annual show.
