Quilt Show

The Mt. Tam Quilt Guild (MTQG) will be displaying their incredible quilts at the Marin Senior Fair along the walls of the Avenue of the Quilts as you enter the Fair.

Be sure to visit the MTQG craft booth (booths 304-305) where you will find quilted items for sale and ongoing quilting demonstrations.  A quilt is made start to finish during the Fair day.
