Past Shows

2019 QUILTING IN THE RED ROCKS QUILT SHOW

Saturday, March 2^nd and Sunday March 3^rd

There is nothing like a lot of color to brighten a winter day, and that is just what visitors to Quilting in the Red Rocks Quilt Show will experience!  The Delicate Stitchers Quilt Guild will celebrate its twenty-first anniversary by presenting its tenth biennial quilt show at the Grand Center, 182 N. 500 West, the weekend of March 2 & 3. 

The hours are:  Saturday, March 2, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,

 Sunday, March 3, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. 

Admission, as always, is free!

Close to 200 antique, traditional and art quilts, quilted home décor and wearable art will be on display, along with our beautiful Modern star Opportunity Quilt made by Guild members and expertly quilted by Lou Gostlin. It is queen/king sized.  Tickets for the quilt will be on sale at the show.  Annual challenge quilts will also be on display.

Vendors from Utah, Colorado and New Mexico will offer fabrics, patterns, threads, books and notions. Vendors will be offering demonstrations throughout the two days of the show, so stop by their booths to see what they have to offer. Moab quilter, and Guild member, Sandra Starley, is one of fewer than 100 accredited quilt appraisers in the nation; and one of only two in Utah.  She will be doing quilt appraisals in her booth, for a fee.   Come and enjoy the old and new in quilting!

The Delicate Stitchers Quilt Guild was founded in 1998 by a group of women who realized there are a great many quilters in Moab and the surrounding area.  They also recognized the need for an organized group that would foster this fiber art form.  Monthly meetings are held the second Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Grand Center, 182 N 500 West, in Moab.  A social “half hour” is held, starting at 6:30 p.m. There is a lesson given at each meeting and members bring their projects, completed or in progress, for “Show and Tell”.  A lesson is also presented.  Monthly “sew days” are scheduled so members can work on their own projects, or participate in a scheduled class.  An annual themed quilt challenge is held every May and June at the Museum of Moab.  This year’s theme is “Black and White”, and quilters are not allowed to use any color.   Guild members are busy creating quilts to reflect this theme.  Each January a retreat is held at Pack Creek Ranch, and a mystery project is presented.  Participants also bring their own projects to work on during this fun weekend.  The Guild participates in many charitable causes particularly making quilts for children in crisis and the New Hope Pregnancy Center.  Guild members are also working with Its Sew Moab quilt shop, to make quilts to place in local emergency vehicles.  Dues are $15 per year.  All quilters, and those interested in quilting, are welcome! 

Lots of Color and Delightful Designs

Great Shopping from our Vendors
