Quilting festival

Submitted Photos - - A selection of quilts on display at the festival, planned for today, Saturday and Sunday.
March 19, 2010

Quilters from throughout the region open an invitation today through Sunday to join them in the 17th annual Minot Prairie Quilting Festival, hosted by the Minot Prairie Quilting Guild in the Grand International Inn. Each year has a theme, and this year it’s “Quilting is Sweet, Cupcake.” “The title comes from our guest instructor,” said Lynn Heald, chairperson of the festival. “He’s a national teacher named Mark Lipinski, and he calls everybody ‘cupcake,’ so we thought that would be a cute name for the festival.” Lipinski is the creator of Quilter’s Home magazine and designer of patterns and fabrics for quilters around the world. Local teachers are Merri Green, Toberta Flannigan and Karen Dockter, with others from the region coming to help out. The judge for the more than 175 quilts entered and on display is Kathleen Moorhead-Johnson from Alexander. She is an award-winning quilter with many ‘best of show’ works who judged at the North Dakota State Fair this year.
