Description
The Carson Valley Quilt Guild will present an old fashioned “Bed Turning” of antique quilts at the Carson Valley Museum & Cultural Center. Bed Turnings are a unique element of American Heritage, allowing artisans a creative way to share the provenance and lore behind their quilts. First held in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1991, this program has become the cornerstone of National Quilting Day. National Quilting Day is observed annually on the third Saturday of March. Bed Turnings will be held at 11:00am and 1:00pm. In addition, a demonstration of quilting techniques will run throughout the day. Admission is free!
