Every year about this time The Evergreen Quilters of Unity-Unitarian Church in St Paul exhibit many original quilts and wall hangings. In addition after some Sunday services, the quilters' table in the parish hall will have a variety of quilting items for sale. A large quilt made by many of the women is currently hanging in the foyer of the church and will be awarded at the end of the month to the winning raffle ticket holder. All proceeds are donated to several local non-profit organizations including Hallie Q. Brown Foodshelf, The Family Place, Jeremiah Program as well as
Obama Elementary School.
These two wall hangings, "Evergreen Dreams" and "Blue Vase" are creations of Jeannie Spears, seen above. Jeannie has been a longtime quilter and is as lovely a person as are her creations!
Very colourful works!
ReplyDeleteJeannie looks to be a lovely person and I'm a fan of quilts so I think we'd get along very well. That 2nd one is perfect for a cold winter's day in Minnesota.
ReplyDeleteNice to see the artist and her work together.
ReplyDeleteDo you think she would be interested in being my grandmother?
