Quilting
Bee • Saturday 27 June 1:00
to 4:00 pm • SH
• The Log Cabin Quilters
of Elkins, WV and friends will be quilting under the trees at the
Sites Homestead, working on a 9-patch pattern quilt set up on an old
heirloom quilting frame. This was a popular way for women to socialize
in the 1800s while getting practical tasks done. Please join us to
experience a sense of days-gone-by. You can even do a stitch or two
on the quilt. No experience necessary! Music and refreshments will
be "stitched" into the afternoon. |
