McCook House is holding Quilts Galore exhibit

McCook House is holding a quilt exhibit through Oct. 11.

“Quilts Galore,” the McCook House Museum's fall exhibit, will be on display through Oct. 11 at 15 S. Lisbon St., Carrollton. The showcase will feature both hand-sewn and machine-made quilts, old and new, celebrating the craft’s artistry and history.

Each quilt tells a story, whether it is as simple as the names of the assembler and quilter or as rich as the memories attached to a family heirloom.

“Visitors are invited to consider each quilt's unique narrative,” said Kathleen Horn of the McCook House. “Was it a gift? An inheritance? How old is it? Do you know the pattern?”

The McCook House Museum invites the community to participate in preserving and sharing the quilting tradition through this special fall display.
