Famous Quilter Marianne Fons joins us to talk about her quilting and writing life

Visited the International Quilt Museum and Quilt Study Center in Lincoln NE yesterday with a group from the Iowa Quilt Museum. We got an exclusive behind the scenes look at the archival areas where they store all the quilts. So amazing! #internationalquiltstudycenter #iowaquiltmuseum (at International Quilt Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0tPqWjHn4k/?igshid=1i5b5ef3ay00c

No visit to Madison County is complete with visiting a bridge or two. #madisoncountyiowa #winterset #wintersetiowa #iowaquiltmuseum #airingofthequilts #bridgesofmadisoncounty (at Winterset, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP0yJvznmmq/?utm_medium=tumblr

The annual “Airing of the Quilts” happened in Winterset, IA on Saturday. It’s always fun to stroll along this cute town and see quilts displayed outside. And of course, visit the Iowa Quilt Museum. #winterset #wintersetiowa #iowaquiltmuseum #airingofthequilts (at Winterset, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP0xklDnio3/?utm_medium=tumblr

A couple more pics from our visit to the #iowaquiltmuseum yesterday. The hexie quilt was made by a lady who had cataracts and, the worse her vision got, the brighter her quilts became. #wintersetiowa https://www.instagram.com/p/BrYFnyOnimP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10d7gvw7p0rwb

Spent a lovely morning in Winterset IA with friends. Visited the #iowaquiltmuseum (there was a #bonniehunter quilt) and #pieceworksquiltshop for a fabric fix. #winterset #quiltyfriendsarethebest (at Winterset, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrV2gIpnMRd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xy2c71s0nw1o

Today was “the airing of the quilts” in Winterset IA. First stop - the Iowa quilt museum where the current exhibit is an amazing selection of Victoria Findlay Wolfe’s quilts. I’ll be doing a couple of posts in the next few days. #wintersetiowa #iowaquiltmuseum #airingofthequilts #victoriafindlaywolfe (at Iowa Quilt Museum)
