The Norske Needlers will hold their annual quilt show from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday Sept. 23, at the Iola Car Show Activity Center.

More than 200 quilts and quilted items on display and bed turnings will take place at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to shop at the show.

“There will be vendors to make purchases from, a sales boutique of items members have made and a resale section of items from members’ sewing/craft rooms,” said Barb Kobs, a member of the organization.

Food will also be available to purchase. The Rustic Java food truck will have coffee and other beverages and the Crystal Café will cater a selection of lunch items.

Admission to the show is $5 and free for ages 12 and under.

The Norske Needlers formed in 2003 and meets at 6 p.m. on the first Monday of each month at the Iola Community Center.

The group participates in community programs such as the Million Pillowcase Challenge, Quilts of Valor and Sleep in Heavenly Peace.
