Henrietta Quilt Club Show Draws Two Hundred Visitors
On October 24 & 25, 2009, the Henrietta Quilt Club set up a display of newly-made quilts, as well as antique quilts, in a show that is offered every other year. This event took place in Henrietta, New York (Rochester area). This group of 77 quilting aficionados meet every Tuesday at 1 p.m., at the Henrietta Public Library located at 455 Calkins Rd., Henrietta, NY.
Beth Davis sent some photos, at my request, for your viewing pleasure.
Beth states that the show took volunteers four hours to set up, but only 50 minutes to take down!
Another view of the show. Any quilt show is a labor of love!
Antique bed quilts were flipped, one at a time, in this method of showing quilts.
Many thanks to Beth Davis for providing these images! Beth is the contact person for this group.
This appears to be an active group of quilters. Thirty-six members displayed 65 quilts. A lunch of homemade Lasagna was available to the show workers.
