Quilt show wants your stories

The Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show is celebrating its 35th year with a documentary film produced by Expectations Moving Pictures of Sisters.

The documentary will use personal stories with key community members and quilt show participants from over the 35 years to show the tremendous influence that the show has had on the Sisters community and people around the world.

The documentary will examine the show's impact on Sisters' tourism, economy and community, emphasizing the art, inspiration, friendships and the positive energy generated by Quilt Show week.

Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show is inviting the public to participate in this project. Organizers are seeking photos, film, video or other memorabilia and especially stories that truly express the spirit of community generated by the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show.

E-mail [email protected] with your story or to pass along images or other memorabilia.

The documentary film will premiere at the 35th Birthday Gala Fundraiser, July 6. Tickets are $35 and a portion of the proceeds benefit the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show. Tickets are available at http://www.sistersoutdoorquiltshow.org. Copies of the DVD will be for sale after July 6 at Stitchin' Post.
