Mountainburg issued the following announcement on Oct. 21.
We have 3 at City Hall so thrilled to be a part of this fun event.
The debut of the Crawford County Quilt Trail with its 30 quilt blocks! The trail was developed by Cathy Mason who served as Executive Director of Artup Mulberry. Now retired, she continues to volunteer as the Crawford County Quilt Trail coordinator. She enlisted volunteer painters to choose their pattern and write their story, then encouraged them to see it to completion. Support for the Crawford County Quilt Trail was also made possible by the Mountainburg Senior Center and the Arkansas Arts Council through a grant for life-long learners. You’ll see brightly painted quilt blocks spread around the county in places like Mountainburg, Alma, Mulberry, Rudy, Van Buren, Chester, and Cedarville. Crawford County, in northwest Arkansas, was established in 1820. The Boston Mountains on the north and the Arkansas River Valley on the south provide beautiful vistas. The Oklahoma-Arkansas state line is the western boundary of the county. Interstate 40 makes it very accessible to travelers. I-49 north from Alma slices through the county for visitors traveling to the northwest corner of the state. The historic preservation of downtown Van Buren provides another destination for visitors. Come and travel the Crawford County Quilt Trail, the 16th county trail in Arkansas.
