Carlotta's Quilts

 I wanted to finish up with the last few pictures I took

at our

Show and Tell with the

Phoenix Modern Quilt Guild meeting 

this month.

 I was especially impressed with the 

Art Quilts by 

Carlotta

( what a beautiful name, too!)

 Carlotta likes to add bead work to 

each of her pieces.

 She said you will always

be able to find some type of

bug or insect in each of her designs.

 Many of her pieces are made for customers.

 As a side note,

the charity work that goes on behind the scenes

with the PMQG

led by B.J. and Jacki

is equally impressive.

This month we gathered quilts for the 

Elderly victims of the

Yarnell Hill Fire

 As many of you may have read in the National news,

we lost 19 Firefighters from the Prescott Fire Department

in this tragedy.

Our state of Arizona has grieved deeply,

and communities have looked for ways to help.

 127 buildings and many neighborhoods

in Yarnell were completely destroyed.

These quilts donated by our guild members

will go directly to the Elderly 

who have been identified specifically as needing 

blankets for the winter.

This really is what quilting is all about.
