BEAVER DAM, Ky. (9/29/15) — The second annual “Airing of the Quilts” returns to Beaver Dam on Saturday, October 3, according to event coordinators Shelia Decker and Brenda McDaniel. “The goal is to turn Main Street into a kaleidoscope of color,” said McDaniel. “The event will help usher in the fall season as well as act as a welcoming scene for folks attending the Blue Moon Bluegrass Festival at the amphitheater in Beaver Dam.” “We are asking all residents and businesses along Main Street in Beaver Dam to display their quilts,” said Decker. “Display grandma’s, mama’s or Aunt Jane’s quilt or a creation of your own.” Decker added “We are looking for all types of quilts and believe that faded colors, stains and holes only add character.” Quilts can be displayed on porch rails, fences, ladders, swings or on lawn chairs in the yard. Be creative and let you imagination go. The displays are for the community’s enjoyment and nothing will be judged. The Ohio County Artists’ Guild will be hosting a quilt display at the Guild House. As part of the festivities, the Guild will also include hand quilting demonstrations as part of their display. Decker is looking forward to a great display this year. “Last year it was a bit windy,” she said. “The weather forecast for Saturday is calling for sunshine and temps in the 60’s, great weather for an outdoor event!” The “Airing of the Quilts” event is sponsored by the Beaver Dam Tourism Commission. Information provided by the City of Beaver Dam
