This
October, the scenic mountain hamlet of Weaverville will wrap itself
in cozy quilts. Your
hosts, the Thursday Night Strippers Quilt
Guild, invite you to a town-wide quilt show spanning the entire
Historic District. Balconies, railings, store fronts and fencelines
will be graced with the quilter's art--a quarter mile of quilts!
Shopping opportunities abound! Local shops offer unique
items and quilting vendors will populate the Highland Meadow. Be
sure to pick up a Quilt Show program at our Welcome Booth, first
booth on the right as you enter the meadow. The program has handy
maps, schedules, coupons and may contain a winning ticket for a
door prize (1 in 4 is a winner!). Event T-shirts, mugs and gift
cards are also available--your purchase supports this quilt event.
As an added bonus, enjoy the fall colors of the Trinity
Alps. The weather in October is the finest of the year, with pleasantly
warm days and cool evenings. Majestic Alpine peaks surround the
valley of Weaverville offering grand views in all directions while
autumn leaves complement the colorful quilts.
