Our EQ7 Group (Missoula Electric Quilters) participated in a fabulous public art project. Our community members submit designs to be applied to the numerous, gray traffic boxes at each intersection. The committee decides on the "winners" and the boxes are decorated. We submitted two designs and they were both accepted. We designed a one block quilt representing mountains, trails, popular icons in our valley..."Missoula Quilted" The second one has blocks that represent our heritage..."Missoula Heritage". We chose to have our designs reproduced in vinyl and professionally installed. We are thrilled with the results. More info: http://www.ci.missoula.mt.us/index.aspx?NID=899
