Once again the 18th Annual Arthur Quilt Show was a great success and we would like to thank everyone who displayed quilts with us. Everyone who visited us took great pleasure in seeing all of the beautiful quilts that were on display and we look forward to our 19th Annual Arthur Quilt Show on April 23-26, 2008.
