Joseph Oregon is the Perfect Place for Quilt Lovers



If you love and appreciate quilts, you will feel right at home at the Mountain View Motel & RV Park where most of the log framed beds are covered with quilts.

25th Annual Wallowa Mountain Quilters Guild Show Coming Up

To further feed your quilt passion, Joseph's annual quilt show takes place on June 9 and 10, the same weekend as the Oregon Mountain Cruise car show (June 10). We have found that our guests appreciate the scheduling of both on the same weekend for couples where the women don't want to look at cars all day and men don't care to admire quilts for hours.

The theme for this year’s 25th Annual Wallowa Mountain Quilters Guild Show will be The Oregon Trail, with more than 150 quilts for you to feast your eyes on at the Joseph Charter School at 400 East Williams Avenue, Joseph, Oregon. Yes, it is possible to purchase handmade quilts the show.

Hours are Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is $3.50 for adults; children 12 and under free.

See Wallowa Mountain Quilters' Guild for info on the show, and if you have quilts to share or sell, get the online entry form in by May 25.

The Wallowa Mountain Quilters' Guild was formed in 1991 by a small group of local quilt enthusiasts. Their mission is to promote and preserve the ancient art of quilting, share information about modern quilting methods, and provide venues for quilters to learn from each other and display their quilting accomplishments.

Getting There: Joseph Charter School is 2.4 miles from the Mountain View Motel & RV Park. Go right (south) toward Joseph on Hwy-82. Drive through downtown Joseph and turn left on E. Walker Ave. Turn right at the 3rd cross street onto N. East St., then left onto E. Williams Ave. Bear left again to stay on E. Williams and drive to the school.
