About Lura Schwarz Smith: Lura Schwarz Smith holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art from San Francisco State University and has been producing textile art for over 30 years. Before that, she was making very bad traditional bed quilts with her first quilting partner, her mother, starting in the 1960s. "We didn't know enough to realize how bad these were," the artist says, " we had a wonderful time trying everything."
As Lura Schwarz Smith's skills developed, she began showing in galleries, learning from other quilters, and experimenting with her own techniques. For the past several decades she has been showing quilts and receiving awards at regional, national, and international quilt shows, culminating with prestigious announcement that one of her quilts had been included by the International Quilt Association in the "100 Best American Quilts of the 20th Century."

Lura's other achievements include having her wall hanging, “Shadowplay,” accepted into Quilt Visions 2008 at the Oceanside Museum of Art, California, and participating in the "30 Distinguished Quilt Artists of the World" exhibit at the first Tokyo Dome quilt show in 2002. The artist states that she enjoys merging her art background with quilting techniques. Her inspirations evolve from "inner, or dream images," which she explores in an "effort to express the inner life through fabric art."

About the world famous Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show™ Quilters Affair Week, and the Weeks Events : Jean Wells Keenan, Val Wells Kennedy and the folks at the Stitchin' Post have done a great job these past 34 years. For 2009, the sixth annual Fiber Arts Stroll through the town of Sisters moves to Sunday, July 5th from 2 - 6 PM.
