Bed Turning at the Carson Valley Museum

The Carson Valley Quilt Guild will present an old fashioned “Bed Turning” of antique quilts at the Carson Valley Museum & Cultural Center on Saturday, March 15.

Bed Turnings are a unique element of American Heritage, allowing artisans a creative way to share the provenance and lore behind their quilts.  First held in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1991, this program has become the cornerstone of National Quilting Day.  National Quilting Day is observed annually on the third Saturday of March.

Doors open at 10:00am. Bed Turnings will be held at 11:00am and 1:00pm. In addition, a demonstration of quilting techniques will run throughout the day. Admission is free!
