It's September and that means Quilt County is here!
This year our display is at Softstar Shoes in Philomath! Our quilts will be displayed the entire month of September - Tuesday through Saturday from 10am to 4pm. They look so good hanging in this fun space (a former roller rink!) and with that super fun green slide!
Stop by and check out our quilts! Please let us know when you do, and if you have any questions about a quilt or our group!
