SUPPORTING GROUPS
Want to join the fun? Our quilt show would not happen without the support and cooperative efforts of these four quilt groups! All meet in the tri-county area, are active in their community, and have something different to offer. All four groups are also dedicated to contributing to the surrounding community by donating hundreds of quilts and other handmade items each year. From time to time they also bring in renown instructors so that members can learn new techniques. All of the groups welcome new members, please contact them if you are interested in more information.
