From what started out as a one store exhibit, the Annual Arthur Quilt show hasMore Arthur Quilts grown to a show that hosts visitors from across the Midwest. With Arthur's location in the quilt friendly Illinois Amish Country, the quality of quilts in this show is outstanding. The show is a competitive event for quilt enthusiasts with up to 100 quilts on display. There is a small admission charge to see the show but is well worth the price.

2007 is shaping up to be another great turnout at the 18th Annual Arthur Quilt Show.  With over 100 registrations so far and more on the way it will be a large display once again.
