About Prairie Quilts

Quilt - kwilt, n. [O.Fr. cuilte, coutre, coultre <Latin culcitra, culcita] A cover or coverlet made by stitching one cloth over another with some soft substance between; any thick or warm coverlet.

A quilt may be defined as a simple covering for a bed -- but from earliest times women transformed these lowly blankets into vibrant works of art. Prairie Quilts will showcase the work of contemporary women from the area who express their artistic and creative impulses through needle, thread, and fabric.

Hosted by quilting teacher Virginia Dambach, Prairie Quilts highlights the finest work displayed in quilt shows in Grand Forks, Medora, and Fargo this year. This season's ultimate show & tell will feature works ranging across the entire quilting spectrum from traditional to contemporary.
