With more than 100 quilt entries this year, the Logan County Fair Quilt Show continues its tradition of beautiful quilts and quilted items lovingly created by the talented members of the community.

Also on display throughout the week at the open class building is the Logan Piecemakers’ Scarlet, Gray and White raffle quilt for 2023, which salutes the OSU Buckeyes.
Tickets can be purchased from any member through mid-December when a winner will be drawn. Proceeds from the raffle will support quilt-related activities including a quilting service project for 2024.
For the 2023, service project members made more than 100 “fidget mats” to deliver to area nursing homes for residents to enjoy.
