Virtual Quilt Show
Thank you for stopping in to see our Virtual Quilt Show. Many of us have been very busy during the COVID-19 pandemic and we are excited to share photos of our creations! Quilts are listed alphabetically by maker’s last name.
The Marie Webster Quilt Guild is named in honor of Marie Webster, a pioneering entrepreneur and author of the first book of quilt history. The mission of the guild is to support the mission of The Quilters Hall of Fame through financial contributions and volunteer hours. Click here to read more about The Marie Webster Quilt Guild.

Top row right: Round Robin done with my Planet Caffeine online group several years ago. Never finished because I didn’t like some of the rounds. I paper pieced the center; next person added the narrow border and paper-pieced coffee mugs. I too the rest apart. I added the red border and carefully cut the hand appliquéd muffins from their (ugly) green background and re-hand appliquéd to espresso brown. Quilted by me.
