We are announcing our Bi-Annual Quilt Walk (or if you would rather- Quilt Show) .... along with a plea for you to bring your quilts/wall hangings/table runners into either of the Home Grown Quilt locations so that we can proudly display your beautiful quilts. Without your help, our quilt walk will be an utter failure. This is such a great event for the whole community to be a part of.... so.... please, please, pretty please bring your quilts :D
It's time to start bringing in your adopt a top quilts. You have 3 weeks to finish them up. :)
We love what we are seeing so far!
We have had about 8 lovely ladies who have said they would love to bind any quilts that are done if those who are quilting them don't want to bind them. If you are one who doesn't love binding, bring your quilt to us and we'll get it to the right people. It takes a village to support a village, and we are grateful for your help! ------------------------------------------------------------- Check out our Amazing Husqvarna Viking Specials for AUGUSTCome in and play with our machines and see why Husqvarna Viking is the best in the industry!
