From its humble beginnings in 1983 as several women who valued the rich cultural heritage of quilt making organized the first Quilt Show, to today, the Holiday Quilt Show and Auction is one of the last remaining all-hand-quilted quilt shows in the United States.

Each year hundreds of volunteers give countless hours of their time, talents, and resources to create beautiful handmade quilts. Thanks to a generous community, more than $4.5 million has been raised through the Quilt Show in support of Intermountain Foundation work in helping to provide the highest quality healthcare to Salt Lake Valley and beyond. Funds have also been used in support of medical research and education, advancing the science of medicine.

Proceeds from the 2024 Holiday Quilt Show and Auction will support the funding of a new ultrasound imaging machine for the Grant Scott Bonham Fetal Center at Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital.

This imaging machine will provide the highest level of care for mothers and babies, and is vital to the diagnosis and treatment of an unborn child.

The Grant Scott Bonham Fetal Center is the most highly specialized fetal care center in Utah and the Intermountain West, featuring: 

  • Maternal-fetal medicine specialists for the pregnant mother 
  • Neonatologists who are specially trained to care for newborns, and 
  • Pediatric specialists for all of the baby’s needs before and after delivery 
Contributions to the Fetal Center provide the opportunity to rewrite the life stories of untold numbers of children and families across our community. Because of this generosity, children are able to grow into healthy adults, living life to the fullest.
