 The
motto is "Stitching Together a Community" and is an ongoing project
to use Art and History to Tell Our Story. The Alcona County
Quilt Trail Project celebrates the historical, agricultural and
cultural richness of Alcona County, Michigan.
The project involves constructing large painted, wooden quilt square
replicas on the sides of barns and other traditional buildings in
the area. This trail highlights both Alcona Countys' rich
local history and the important role that arts and crafts play in
the community.
The first quilt block has been installed and can be seen about 2
miles east of Harrisville on M-72. Several more are planned
for 2008 and an additional tour is planned to celebrate the 140th
year anniversary of Alcona County Michigan in 2009.
