Quilters display work in guild’s group show

Among 60 members of Milwaukee’s North Shore Quilters Guild, two Jewish quilt artists will be featured at the first group show in Wisconsin’s newest museum, The Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Arts.

Nina Edelman and Marla Morris Kennedy, both non-traditional art quilters, will show their work Oct. 22 and 23 at the museum in Cedarburg, N 50 W5050 Portland Rd.

More than 100 quilts on display, vendors, demos and a family I-Spy treasure hunt are offered. In addition to a guild-made fall-themed raffle quilt, a special offering of small Japanese inspired art quilts created in response to the earthquake and tsunami disaster can be purchased with a check written directly to a disaster relief agency.

The show, “Quilts Through the Barn Door,” runs 10 a.m.-4.p.m. on both days. Admission is $5.
