Twenty years ago, a small idea was hatched that grew into a BIG quilt! The resulting “Stitching North Carolina: The Hundred County Quilt ” will be displayed at Core Sound Museum & Heritage Center in Harkers Island through the month of February. The quilt measures 16 feet by 8 feet and contains blocks made by quilters for all of North Carolina’s one hundred counties. Check www.coresound.com for daily hours.

In March, the quilt will be on display at the Core Sound Community Outpost located at 806 Arendell Street, Morehead City to commemorate National Quilting Month.
