From what started out as a one store exhibit, the Annual Arthur Quilt show has grown to a show tMore Arthur Quiltshat 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 more than 100 quilts on display. There is a small admission charge to see the show but is well worth the price.

2013 is shaping up to be another great turnout at the 24th Annual Arthur Quilt Show. Even with the date change, we still expect over 100 registrations so it will be a large display once again. Plus don't forget the hundreds of additional quilts, patterns and supplies on display and available in the nearby downtown shops.
