BONNERS FERRY — Residents of Boundary County came together once again for the annual fall quilt show. The Exhibit Hall at the Boundary County Fairgrounds was filled with the vibrant colors and patterns of the hardworking local quilters.

From unique quilt designs to a variety of takes on the same pattern with different cloths, attendees were able to marvel over the diversity of the art.

As Boundary County descends into the fall season, indoor activities take precedence as the days get colder. Quilting is more than just art, it is a hobby that brings people together to socialize and make memories. Having a place and time to display the beautiful quilts brings recognition to the hard work that the quilters put in.
