May be an image of text that says 'The Stanly County Historical Society presents Hiring ring of the Quilts A Quilt Trunk Show of Three Rivers Quilters Guild April 9th 1:00 4:00 112 Ν. Third St Downtown Albemarle'

 

In the historic setting of the 1852 Isaiah W. Snuggs and Freeman-Marks Houses, the show will feature quilts by members of the Three Rivers Quilters Guild and a Civil War era quilt collection of the Stanly County Museum. Airing quilts outside has a long tradition in America beginning in colonial times. Early European settlers would mark the beginning of spring by airing quilts outside following heavy use during the winter season. In the event of inclement weather, the Airing will be rescheduled.
