Movies involving quilting?
Our retreat committee suggested showing a movie one evening that involved quilting. They were not suggesting a technique movie/DVD, rather something women would enjoy for fun. Does anyone know of such movies? I am at a loss and would appreciate your help and ideas.

Wasn't there a quilt movie about 8 or 10 years ago - it had Wynona Rider in it - she came home and learned all these wonderful stories about her family during quilting bees. I just don't remember the name - I willl see if I can look it up - Oh, just found it " How to make an American Quilt" - I never actually watched the movie so I don't know if there is a lot of quilting in it. That is the only one I can think of.

The best movie that is great for family viewing and has lots of quilts is an old Disney one called So Dear To My Heart.
I laughed until I cried at the goat scene. The quilts are called 'quivers' in the movie, slang for 'covers'. It's a great movie and Burl Ives sings Lavender Blue in it. It would be perfect for your quilt group.

I found a clip of the movie that shows a quilt and the lady piecing nine patch blocks!http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041890/
