For more information, visit www.ghqg.org or contact Tammy Anderson 860-346-3888 This year’s show theme “Our Tribute to Mother Nature” ties into the Farmington River Quilt Project. The Farmington River Quilt Project is a 50 foot long quilt depicting 25 locations along the "Wild and Scenic" designated portion of the Farmington River. Twenty-four quilt artists, some recognized nationally came together with artists creating landscape quilts for the first time to create the 25 sections. Each section is 21" high by 24" wide and though the tree line and sky change from section to section to show each area, the river runs smoothly uniting the sections into one continuous quilt. This is the first local showing since initial completion. A portion of the Quilt Show ticket sales proceeds go to the Farmington River Cleanup Project.
