Jackson Hole Quilt Festival

Posted on: September 25th, 2014 by thcAdmin No Comments

October 7-11, 2014

The Jackson Hole Quilt Festival is in its infancy. A new event to the Fall calendar, that held its inaugural run in 2013. The Quilt Festival secured funding from the Jackson Hole Travel & Tourism Joint Powers Board this year to help boost awareness and host the event. Quilting Festivals across the nation have turned into annual gatherings that allow like minded individuals to congregate.

A number of classes will be available which you can register for on their webpage. Quilts will be on display at a number of local businesses, 55 to be exact.

The Hole Concierge wishes this event well, having a great grandmother who was an avid quilter.
