Popular Antique Quilt Turning Returns to Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society

On March 24, choose a morning or afternoon session of the quilt turning event that will feature Barbara Garrett, a local quilt historian.  The display includes the newly acquired, well-known Diamond Sampler quilt, acclaimed as "the greatest quilt ever to come from Lancaster County."
 
The popular Antique Quilt Turning returns to Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society (LMHS) Tuesday, March 24, 2020. This up-close-and-personal event begins with viewers gathered around a stack of antique quilts curated from the LMHS museum collection. Barbara Garrett, local quilt historian, will review each quilt: providing background, pointing out unique features, and storytelling. After each quilt is featured, it is "turned" off the stack, and the next quilt comes into view.
 
The two-hour event, offered twice on March 24, fits into travel plans for visitors attending the Lancaster Quilt Show or AQS Quilt Show. The cost is $40, and member discount applies. To reserve your place call LMHS at 717.393.9745 or register online for the 10am to 12pm session (bit.ly/QuiltAM) or 1:30pm to 3:30pm session (bit.ly/QuiltPM).
 
A paid reservation includes complimentary admission to LMHS's museum exhibit, Decorated and Plain: An Amish and Mennonite Sampler. On March 24 only, the exhibit will display twelve stunning quilts not included in the quilt turning. The display includes the newly acquired, well-known Diamond Sampler quilt, acclaimed as "the greatest quilt ever to come from Lancaster County." For visitors not participating in the Antique Quilt Turning, exhibit admission is $8.

Native Ways~A Plant for All Seasons: Cattail

  • MaryAnn Robins, president of the Circle Legacy Center, presents this four-part series at the Lancaster Longhouse on the grounds of the 1719 Hans Herr House & Museum.
  • Learn and understand the value of the cattail plant to the Native people of the woodlands.

Willow Street, PA - The new class, Native Ways— A Plant for All Seasons: Cattail begins in April at the Lancaster Longhouse on the grounds of the 1719 Hans Herr House & Museum. MaryAnn Robins, president of Circle Legacy Center (circlelegacycenter.org), presents this four-part series throughout the year.

Learn and understand the value of the cattail plant to the Native people of the woodlands. The first session on April 18 from 9 am to 10:30 am, focuses on instruction. How do you identify the cattail and harvest the plant? What are the common uses of the plant in Native culture?

On June 20 from 9 am to 11 am the second session entitled Cakes and Torches begins with the students learning of the edible properties of the cattail and preparing ground cakes that the students may enjoy. The brown stock of the plant is a great firestarter. Students dip them in bear grease to make torches.

The last two sessions delve into mat making. The students gather and split the reeds of the cattail during the third session on August 8 from 9 am to 11 am. The fourth session on October 3 from 9 am to 11 am, demonstrates how to use the dried reeds to weave mats.

The instructor asks students to make her aware of any allergies. Loose-fitting clothing suggested for the hands-on sessions.  The cost is $60. Members receive their discounts. Individual classes can not be purchased separately. Pre-register by April 8 at bit.ly/NativeCattail.
