The story of the quilt walk

Tuesday, July 20, 2010

He's here!!!!

And he is awesome!!!!!Our Quilt Walk statue has arrived. There are a large group of men working so hard to get the statue and park done.  Notice that each square in the quilt is unique.  Claudia, Elaine and Pat worked so hard to get the statue right. Stan Johnson of Parowan is the sculpture.  Pat said that we will have the dedication (tenatively) the second Saturday in September. 
The story is  unique to Panguitch's first settlement.  I am looking for the story told by one of the ladies who was part of that settlement.  I will post it later. 
Enjoy!

  1. It is lovely! I'm so glad you told me. I've completely lost track of blogs this summer. My daughter has been home with her baby most of the time and I feel like If I'm not at my machine I'm with them. It is good to come back to the blog. It makes me happy to see this statue. I love it.
