The 2025 MU Extension Quilt Day is 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday, March 22nd, at the Missouri Star Quilt Co. Sewing Center, 202 N. Davis St., Hamilton. This event is open to current faculty and staff, retirees, extension council members, extension volunteers and their guests.
Don’t wait to register. We expect a lot of interest in the event. The registration deadline is March 17th. Please register online. If you have questions, contact Jessica Trussell at the MU Extension Center in Livingston County at 660-646-0811.
Bring your favorite project for the show and tell during our catered lunch. Other than our brief program and lunch, the day is yours to fill—visit, bring your machine and sew in the Retreat Center, browse the multitude of quilt shops up and down the main street in Hamilton, admire the machine quilting in the old library, look through the antique store and enjoy your day. If charging travel, participants’ home county would incur travel expenses.
