Fairfield’s National Quilt,

 “Under the Sea”

http://www.poly-fil.com/undertheseaquilt.asp

 

Since 1980, Fairfield Processing has sponsored a Quilt Block Contest every year.  Each year has it's own theme.  Twenty winners are selected from the entries.  Those blocks are combined to make a large twin size quilt.  In 2008, the theme was "Under the Sea."  Fairfield Processing generously has loaned "Under the Sea" to exhibit at the PennOaks Quilters "For the Love of Quilting V" Quilt Show.

 

Guild Boutique and

Acorn Shoppe:

All items in both shops are handmade.  The Guild Boutique offers items that have been made and donated by members.  The Acorn Shoppe also features some donated handmade items but also showcases individual craftsmanship on a consignment basis.
