Quilting Bee








Historic Mesquite was included in Quilt Mania II this past fall and spring. With the help of faithful volunteers, we were able to keep the Florence Ranch Homestead and the Opal Lawrence Historical Park open regular hours each week. The six months long event ended with a quilting bee at the Lawrence House on March 21, 2009. Quilters accepted blocks and the sewing began. The finished quilt will hang in our offices. Kelly Baird gave a wonderful talk about her personal quilts and how they have effected her life.
