Filled with Quilts!


Once again the rotunda and halls of The Renaissance Center are filled with beautiful and impressive quilts! The 9th Annual Sew Delightful Quilt Guild Show is free to all and runs through Saturday, October 23rd. This year's theme is Breast Cancer Awareness and includes many pink-themed quilts as well as traditional and modern quilt designs.

This Cathedral Window Quilt, by Judy Scheerhorn took 3 years to complete and includes:
20 yards of muslin, 567 7" squares and 1127 2" squares of fabric, and over 1200 yards of thread! Thank you Judy for sharing it with us!











The 75+ quilts displayed this year include many pink breast cancer awareness-themed pieces.



The guild will also sell pens and bracelets for breast cancer awareness and some quilters have pledged to donate a portion of sales for breast cancer research.



The Renaissance Center is located on Highway 46 in Dickson, TN, about 35 miles from downtown Nashville.
