The Beaufort Range~ Quilt by Marie Trimmer
DK Quilt Guild: A place for quilters to gather, share ideas, projects, and to make the world a better place, one quilt at a time. Join us and share your thoughts, projects, questions, and tips. Quilters here are at many different levels of skill. Beginners and non-quilters are welcome, too.
Today's DK Quilt Guild Diary will feature lovely nature quilts with quotes from
John Muir. Many are familiar with this naturalist & advocate for the US wilderness. Enjoy the quilts, and be inspired by his words. These lovely quilts were shown at the
Pacific International Quilt Festival. All photos are mine. Have you ever attempted an art quilt? Let's view these quilts & reflect on John Muir's words beyond the tangled bobbin.
Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.

The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.
Filtered Light~ Quilt by Barbara Confer
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.

Stegner's Aerie~Quilt by Amy Witherow
