This looks so fun! Make sure to get it on your calendar and support our friends in the Valley Quilters Guild!!

The Valley is home to a vibrant quilting community, and we’re excited to share a new community event - Palmer's "Airing of the Quilts"

Sunday, June 7th from 11:00 AM–2:00 PM, quiltmakers and community members will display a favorite quilt outdoors in the June sunshine. Quilts will be showcased around the Palmer Community Center (Train Depot) and the Downtown Pavilion across from the Palmer Visitor Center.

Participants are asked to remain with their quilt during the event to share its story and help keep it safe — think of it as a car show for quilts.

Registration is open to all and limited to one person, one quilt. Space is limited to 40 quilts, so early registration is encouraged. Registration is open online, Facebook and via email.

To commemorate the First Annual Airing of the Quilts, each participant will receive a complimentary quilt block pattern inspired by this year’s event poster, featuring Alaska’s wild rose in a traditional Baltimore Album appliqué style.

How beautiful!!

One of the joys of the Far North Quilt Trail is seeing the personal stories and community connections behind each barn quilt installation. This beautiful piece, painted by Lorene Cox of In The Lights Quilts, began as a heartfelt birthday gift for her mother after Lorene discovered a quilt pattern she instantly knew was “the one.” She even reached out to the original pattern designer, who was thrilled to see the design transformed into a barn quilt.

Barn quilts celebrate both artistry and storytelling, and this project beautifully captures both.

Now proudly displayed at Risse Greenhouse , the barn quilt can be enjoyed by visitors and the wider community alike. Thank you to Lorene for sharing both her talent and this meaningful family story with the trail!
