In a day or two PA Quilt Trails will be announcing a new quilt square to be added to the PA Quilt Trails. And like its predecessor's, this quilt square promises to have interesting cultural significance. Gene Odata, District Forester for the Tuscarora Forest District has worked very hard to make this project happen.


This square is unusual in many aspects. Unlike the more typical quilt square locations of many quilt trails, this square is placed deep in on of Pennsylvania's State Forests. Pennsylvania has about 28.7 million acres of forest and to place a quilt square at the Ranger's Station in a beautiful multi-purpose forest seems like a perfect fit.

As soon as I can "officially" name the sponsor of this quilt, I will also tell a back story which makes the quilt-its design -and location all the more relevant.



This spring we will have several new quilt squares hung including tentatively this one at the Tuscarora.
