Presenting the 2026 Mountain State Apple Harvest Festival Souvenir Quilt - "Mountain State Orchards"
About this year’s Quilt Design:​
This year's quilt is titled Mountain State Orchards. The age-old Tree of Life block pattern was used as inspiration for Bettie Pharr's original design. The colored patches in the tree blocks were made with assorted prints to represent apple varieties such as Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Pink Lady, and Red Delicious. The outside green and brown borders represent mountains that surround our state's many apple orchards.
Crisp, mouthwatering, red apples adorn the backing fabric in keeping with the Apple Harvest Festival theme. A label was added to the bottom right corner of quilt back for the lucky winner documenting the date and occasion. The quilt measures 78"x78".

About this year’s Quilter:​​
Bettie began sewing at a very young age. She and her siblings were always encouraged by their parents to craft and create. Visiting with her grandmothers and aunts in North Carolina as a child, she was inspired to one day try her hand at quilting. That time finally came as a young adult in the late seventies and continues nearly 50 years later as not only a passion, but a home-based business. Quilting Keepsakes was born in 2006 and continues after 20 years of serving the quilting community.
