2021 Quilt Walk
Theme: Bed Turning
LMQG members presented a Bed Turning as a way to show the difference between Traditional and Modern quilts. Several quilts of both types which were layered on tables put together to represent a double bed. Each quilt was then turned back and held up to view and discuss "Is it traditional or modern?"
The quild also displayed their most recent guild challenge results.

LMQG Charity Quilt Entry
for Quiltcon 2020
Theme: Text
The 2020 design theme is text. Quilts incorporating text have been popular in the modern quilt movement right from the start. Krista Hennebury’s quilt, “Fly Blackbird Fly” (pieced with Denyse Schmitt’s letters) won a prize at QuiltCon 2012. Most recently, at QuiltCon 2019, there were a number of quilts exhibited using words. This quilt was donated to our local PAWS of Dearborn County who is displaying it in their lobby.
