22nd Annual A Smoky Mountain Quiltfest 2016 Pigeon Forge

Mar. 15, 2016 — Mar. 19, 2016

Come see a landmark quilting 22nd annual event in Pigeon Forge, TN! The proud heritage of this craft is deeply interwoven in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, so it's no wonder that the annual A Mountain Quiltfest event will yet again draw hundreds of quilters to the LeConte center this year.

The heart of the event is a quilt show where quilts from across the country are submitted and compete for over $20,000 in cash and prizes. There is also a large vendor area with everything a quilter needs to perfect their art.

This 3-day event also features 60 classes for both experienced and rookie quilters alike. Registration for these courses is now open and they cost anywhere from $40 – $60. These courses cover everything from advanced techniques to antique quilt repair to beginners workshops.

Quilters who wish to submit quilts to the competition can do so on the official event website. For those interested, you can also have your quilt critiqued by a NQS certified judge. When event-goers aren't learning more about quilting, they can peruse the quilts on display and marvel at the skill and craftsmanship it takes to produce these beautiful works of art.


Please call us today 865-908-7935 or visit our website www.berrysprings.com and reserve you stay today!  No better way to Spring in to Spring! This is a very special event you do not want to miss! Hope to see and hear from you very soon!
