BIG STONE GAP, VA — The Southwest Virginia Museum Historical State Park hosts a Sew On and Sew Forth Quilting Program Saturday, May 11, 10 a.m to 3 p.m., in the museum's Victorian parlor.

A quilter understands the value of preserving the past. Have you ever wanted to learn how to quilt or learn more about some of the quilts you own? If so, join us for our Sew On and Sew Forth Quilting program.

From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., local quilters will be on the premises and will be demonstrating the art of quilting.

From 2 to 3 p.m., Do you have a quilt that you're not sure of the pattern, age or how to store it properly? Historic Preservation Specialist Burke Greear and local quilter and artisan Suzanne Adams will be on hand to help with identifying the different patterns of quilts as well as how to fold and store them properly.

There is no charge to attend the Sew On and Sew Forth Quilting Program; however, regular admission rates apply for those wishing to tour the museum: $5 for adults, $3 for children ages 6-12 and under 6 are free.
