The Western North Carolina Quilters’ Guild, entering its 40th year of
proudly promoting the art of quilting in 2022, will present a juried
quilt show entitled “A Garden of Quilts Show” for two days, May 20-21,
2022. Show hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and 10 a.m. to 4
p.m. on Saturday. This exciting show will not only display fantastic,
award-deserving quilts, but also a special exhibit of Quilts of Valor,
docent tours, arts and crafts vendors, raffle baskets, used book sale,
and a boutique of handmade quilted items for sale to the public made
by members. The drawing for the Guild’s raffle quilt, “Mist On the
Blue Ridge” will be held on Saturday, May 21 at 4 p.m, pieced by guild
members and custom quilted by Sheridan Kay Quilting. Tickets are
available through guild members and at the quilt show. Drawings for
the raffle baskets will be held afterward. Some of the proceeds from
the show benefit educational programs along with scholarship money for
local students in fiber arts.
