Explore the history of quilts with the Christian County Historical Society for the Quilt Show on Saturday, July 15th. Hand-made quilts dating back to the 1800s will be on display in the various historical buildings at the CC Historical Society Grounds located at 325 Abe’s Way in Taylorville.


This event will include lunch and an ice cream sundae station, where the fees will be used for the CC Historical Societies' many events. Kay Frevert is a board member of the CC Historical Society and plays a large role in the Quilt Show and the Winter Dinner. Quilts are being accepted, and registration and admission are open. Frevert is excited to see what the community has to show off.

 


Some of the historical buildings open for viewing include the courthouse that Abraham Lincoln presided in, the Morrison House, and the Pence Building where there will be quilts on display.

 


Frevert notes that the events hosted by the CC Historical Society are important to spread knowledge to local citizens, young and old. The community is welcome to explore the sights during the Quilt Show.

 


The Quilt Show will begin at 10 A.M. on Saturday, July 15th , at 325 Abe’s Way in Taylorville.
