Canceled for 2020 & 2021 & 2022!
Quilting in the Garden 2019 was held on September 28th & 29th. Volunteers hoisted more than 250 beautiful quilts into our majestic oak trees. We will hold next year’s quilt show during the last weekend of September.
During Quilting in the Garden 2019, we hosted featured artist, Sue Rasmussen and guest artist, Nancy Brown. Some of you may know Nancy from when she visited Alden Lane before to teach a class.
We enjoyed these talented quilters’ unique styles.
Sue Rasmussen’s quilts inspire us to stretch beyond traditional quilting with colorful landscape and pictorial designs that have been paper or machine pieced. Her designs often feature animals, landscapes, or people. She likes to take classics such as flying geese and give them a twist, and her intricate machine quilting will leave you in awe.
Whether wild or domesticated, Nancy Brown’s quilts are incredible portraits of her animal subjects finished with hand appliqué. She focuses on animals because she feels they are important parts of this world and should be celebrated and preserved for future generations to witness. Even her Baltimore album quilts feature friends from the Animal Kingdom!
We will also feature classes from Lisa Norton & Lora Zmak, Jennifer Sampou, Nancy Brown, and Sue Rasmussen.

Jennifer Sampou unveils a just-published book, “Ombre Quilts,” and will have copies of her book as well as original quilts from the book on display.
