Summertime, and the Living is Easy?

Independence Hall Quilters

Do you remember that song?

Maybe the living is easy in summer – someplace, that isn’t Arnold. Our focus is different as our weekly Guild meetings stop (until Sept. 4th), and the Flea Market readiness work begins at Independence Hall.

The Annual Flea Market at Ebbetts Pass Community Center, a.k.a. “The Hall”, is held the first full weekend in August. The fact that getting ready for the event takes half of June and all of July, speaks volumes. The local communities bring donations to the Hall throughout the year.

Volunteers needed!!
Only the Beginning

It’s a challenge to work in the Textiles room. Tons of fabrics, bedding, towels, and sewing notions. You just can’t beat $1.00 per yard…

Bags of yarn and moving boxes full of fabric!  And it’s only June…

The mission of this organization is to encourage and promote interest in America’s oldest folk art form, in an atmosphere of friendliness and sharing. To contribute to the growth and preservation of quilting techniques through education and experience. We are also a non-profit organization, 501(3)c, that makes "comfort quilts" to donate to child/adult protective services and emergency responders.
