Powell Gardens located in Kingsville, MO will open its doors for a State wide quilt show. Over 100 garden themed quilts, vendors (on Friday and Saturday), demonstrations and beautiful gardens are featured at the Missouri State Quilt Guild quilt show held only every 5 or 6 years. The state wide show begins with a preview Monday afternoon April 25 at 3:00 and will end May 1. Continuous demonstration includes hand quilting, machine piecing and serging. A special demonstration will be at 2:00 each day in the lobby. People who help with the show will be wearing a handmade flower tag.

The Rambling River project, 15 different wall hangings to make a winding 22 foot river scene, will be featured. In the gardens will be a series of painted barn doors with traditional quilt patterns such as “Farmer’s Daughter” and “Corn and Beans”. A special quilt block pattern has been designed call “Missouri Gardens” and will be free to guests. Several children’s activities are included in the show. The quilt guild has about 300 members and will conduct its Annual Spring Meeting at Powell Gardens on April 30. [email protected]
