Mitchell & Yancey County Quilt Squares Project

Mitchell and Yancey Counties have between them, over 200 quilt blocks, with more in the hopper. Quilt Trails of Western North Carolina, the non-profit corporation that runs the project, welcomes volunteers to help with painting, story writing, installation, and a myriad of other tasks that it takes to keep the project running.

Each quilt block is connected, by its pattern name, to the history of the land, the building or the family. Click here to see a map and learn the stories by clicking on the locations on the map. For more information about the project, please see "What is Quilt Trails All About?" by Executive Director Barbara Webster.
