    Every year, the historical site of Heritage Park has a FESTIVAL OF QUILTS when anyone can enter their quilt or quilts for display. This year was my first time and my daughter put her first quilt in also. It's not a competition, but a display. Here are but a few pictures of some of the over 500 submitted. Enjoy!!

    Wow, what beautiful quilts. Thanks so much for sharing these with us. I'm in love with that lime green one, almost looks like stained glass. Does anyone know the name of that pattern?
