During the entire month of March, participating businesses will feature dozens of quilts in every pattern, color and price range.  All the quilts are pieced and hand quilted by Ladies from the Yoder community and Amish and Mennonite communities across the United States . 

Quilt making has become a treasured art as well as a part of many family homes.  So no matter what style you fancy, contemporary or traditional, these beautiful handmade quilts are sure to become a family heirloom.

Quilt Drawing! Don't miss the chance to win a beautifully hand stitched quilt! Find it on Display at the Carriage Crossing Restaurant and purchase tickets at participating sponsors for just $1.00 each. Drawing will be held April 1st. Need not be present to win! All proceeds will benefit Yoder Charter School.

The community of Yoder's Parade of Quilts is the quilting event of the season where you can enjoy the quaint ambiance of this horse-drawn community and the beautiful artistry of quilting.  So bring a friend and plan to spend a day in Yoder!
