Quilt Show
June 9 @ 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
The Bitterroot Quilters Guild will hold a Quilt Show titled “My Bitterroot Home” on Saturday and Sunday, June 8 and 9, 2024 at Bitterroot Furniture, 223 Pinckney, Hamilton. Approximately 200 pieces will be displayed throughout the furniture showroom.
The non-profit organization was formed in 1982 by a group of quilting friends to promote the knowledge and history of the craft. Today the Guild boasts approximately 100 members. Members of the Guild make and donate quilts to various organizations throughout the year, including Bitterroot Valley first responders, Hospice, Head Start, Bitterroot Health, Emma’s House and others. The Guild also offers an annual Scholarship to a graduating high school senior, and sponsors annual Grants to local non-profit organizations. For the past few years, the Guild has sponsored a Boutique at the Ravalli County Fair, selling hand-crafted items to raise funds to support our activities.
Admission to the Quilt Show is by donation at the door. Hours are 10 am to 5 pm Saturday, June 8, and 10 am to 3 pm on Sunday, June 9. A beautiful queen-sized quilt is being raffled off; tickets are $1 each or 6/$5. The winner will be drawn on Sunday at the close of the show.
The Guild welcomes new members at any time. Visit Bitterroot Quilters Guild on Facebook for more information.
