Calling all quilters, new or experienced! We are thrilled to be hosting our second quilt show inspired by nature. We are seeking submissions for the show which will open in the Moss Point Fine Arts Gallery on Saturday, May 25th. 

Quilt designs should be inspired by the 2019 theme of "Birds, Butterflies, and Blooms".
