Fabric of our Lives: Quilts on display and so much more!

  • Many quilts will be on display starting Thursday March 9th (1-3) , Friday March 10th (10-2)  and Saturday March 11th (10-4).

  • If anyone has a family heirloom they’d like to share during these 4 days there is a form to fill out contact ask@tualatinhistory.org for details.

  • All day Saturday: Participants will have the chance on site to sew a  block of red, white and blue design. These blocks will eventually become a quilt donated to Quilts of Valor, an organization that gifts such quilts to veterans.  

  • Saturday is special because there are 2 speakers
