If last year was any indication of what to expect in the annual Quilt Show then everyone is sure to see some great work again this year.  Following the 2005 festival two very diligent quilt groups, consisting of Barnesville residents, presented the Quilt Show idea to the Potato Days Board of Directors and what a fantastic idea it was. 
 
For this premiere event there were more than 50 beautiful, handmade quilts or wall hangings on display. It was a tough choice for all individuals that were able to stop by and cast their votes.  All entries presented impressive craftsmanship and after tallying all votes the People’s Choice Award was presented and the winning quilt is shown here.
 
There is no charge for the show held at Hildebrand Hall, north of Assumption Church, on Friday from 12:00 noon to 8:00 p.m. and again on Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.  However, on Saturday the Chocolate Festival will also be held in the same building and there is a $5 charge for that event.
