West Virginia Quilters, Inc. Quilt Festival 2010
Round Robin Quilt


  • 1930’s Style Round Robin
  • Featured Quilters


This new exhibit for the Quilt Festival 2010 will feature various quilt guilds from across the state hand quilting the WV Quilters, Inc. 1930’s Style Round Robin Donation Quilt.  

The top was begun in Morgantown where Carolyn Gibson of the Country Roads Quilt Guild made the center block.  This center square then traveled to Charleston where Nell Griffin, the Moon & Stars Quilters and the Kanawha Valley Quilters put on the first go-around.  It then made its way to Ripley where Ruth Hollandsworth and the Jackson County Creative Quilters added the next round.  The next stop was in central West Virginia, where Cathy Sowa and the Crazy Quilters put on the penultimate round.  The quilt top then arrived in Elkins where the final “round” was stitched by the Log Cabin Quilters’ Guild.  Now it’s off to Joni Hoffman for marking and preparation for quilting at the Festival!

Have your Guild sign up to volunteer to hand quilt for a few hours during the Festival.  The lucky winner of this quilt will receive the notebook that has traveled with the quilt every step of the way.

Thanks to the Greenbrier Classic Golf Tournament for their suppost of the Festival!
