Bushwhacker Quilt Guild Show

Quilt guild members Erica Skouby and Janice Almquist show a quilt belonging to Maxine Morris at a bed turning during the quilt show Friday. Morris' quilt was made for her mother in 1971 by staff at the Nevada State Hospital.

More than 130 quilted pieces, including bed quilts, lap quilts, windown hangers and table accessories, were up for show Friday at the community center. The Bushwhacker Quilt Guild hosted the show, which runs through Saturday.

Erica Skouby and Janice Almquist show a quilt made with cheater cloth, a fabric printed to look like a quilt. The pair showed quilt show attendees a variety of quilts during a bed turning, where quilts along with their stories are displayed.
