Jerry Dunbar is one of Colorado's finest handquilters -- but he also loves to design his own work. Often it features traditional-inspired patterns and ideas -- but with a twist.
He just took prizes at the Arapahoe County Quilters'Festival of Quilts, here in the Denver area --
The show is still going today, 6/10/23 -- check the link for directions.

Best Use of Color, plus 1st prize, Large Wall Quilts, for
FunKee MunKee

The quilt back is a variegated rainbow print.
