"Quilt Stories"

January 9, 2010 - April 24, 2010

The Western Illinois Museum is pleased to present "Quilt Stories" about the history of quilts from the region. Each of the quilts in the exhibit tells a unique story of families, influence, invention, beliefs and political interests. The exhibit includes over twenty quilts that represent the rich history of over 100 years of quilt making in the region sewn by women from Carthage, Good Hope, Macomb and Bushnell with examples from as early as 1848. The quilts will be on display at the Western Illinois Museum located 201 S. Lafayette at the corner of Washington Street. The museum is open 10-4, Tuesday through Saturday.

Vintage Accents

129 S. Randolph

Vintage Accents is a little shop with unique and special items for your friends and guests. A shop with a cozy, warm feel, that you can browse through, and still have to go through again, because you missed the little things hiding among the antiques, sprinkled around for that "vintage" look. There will be a little area where friends and guests can relax with a special cup of tea. Maybe there would be wonderful lotions and creams that are only found in the finest boutiques, or maybe some luxurious fur accessories and vintage jewelry. It would not be just a store, but rather "memorable shopping" experience. Owner Mary Clements insists on bringing "one of a kind" items into a warm and spacious environment.
