As artists and makers we communicate so much with color. The things that bring us the most pleasure in Nature are because of color\u2014pink cherry blossoms, red maple leaves, the Golden Hour, blue skies, purple shadows, the fresh greens of springtime, and clear turquoise waters,\u201d says eQuilter.com President and Co-Founder, Luana Rubin.<br>&nbsp;<br>International Quilt Festival Founder and Director Emeritus Karey Bresenhan adds \u201cThis is hands down one of my favorites of all our exhibits, because I adore the creative and inventive use of color in quilts. And our attendees at the upcoming Festivals will have the opportunity to see not only the top four winners, but<em> all<\/em> of the finalists.\u201d<br>&nbsp;<br>The Salt Lake City Quilt Festival is July 21-23 at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.
