I wanted to show you a few more quilts from
Sharon Schamber's Trunk Show
when she came to the
Phoenix Modern Quilt Guild
Seeing so many AMAZING pieces
one after another
literally took my breath away.
Our Children of Freedom (2003)
91" X 85"
Sharon's daughter Christy
taught elementary school for several years.
The inspiration came from the children
in Christy's 2nd grade class.
Sharon dedicated this quilt to the importance of the learning experience.
Won Best of Show
Pennsylvania National Quilt Extravaganza, Philadelphia, PA 2004
and several other awards.
Emerald Reflections
How would you feel if you had to make this quilt twice?
The original was destroyed in a UPS truck fire
in 2000 while on it's way to be photographed
for Quilter's Newsletter.
Putting in over 2,000 hours of work
Sharon remade this stunning quilt
renaming it Memories of Emerald Reflections
We asked Sharon if she had a favorite out of all of the
quilts she has made.
Her answer:
A Perfect Moment (2002)
85" X 101"
The image was hand painted
with the dress quilted.
But wait, there's more!
I'll be back tomorrow
with additional quilts by Sharon Schamber.

beautiful!! all of them. sad about the loss of a quilt from a truck fire, I heard of that story I don't know if it was of her quilt but I wouldn't think that happens often
I've enjoyed reading your posts about Sharon and her work, what an amazing artist.
Cool!
