The quilts hanging on the walls around the library show the variations of color and style that go into this art form. If you answered “yes” to any of those questions, you don’t want to miss the Sterling Public Library’s seventh annual Quilt Show. Jean Williamson shows the back of her Lucky Dragon quilt during the Quilt Show reception Tuesday. The show displays a wide variety of colors, patterns and techniques, demonstrating that quilting is as much of an art form as painting or sculpting. This year’s show also includes a silent auction for a 96”x96” Grandmother’s Fan quilt made by Jeanne Davis, Sandi Heaston, Lireva Lenz, Jeannette Lininger, Timi McCormick, Katherine Miles, Ruth Prall, Dorothy Schreyer and Janet Strasser. This quilt is made of 1930s reproduction prints and was displayed at the quilt show in 2008.
