Quilting times

Quilts have been in the news this month. Above, quilters wave at passing vehicles as they walk across the Minnesota Highway 33 bridge over the St. Louis River Oct. 12 as part of a "quilt walk," to let people know about the art of quilting and what can be created. Despite a low turnout for the first walk, they got lots of honks and waves from people driving by, said Kris Keppers of the Wood City Quilters.
