Dakota County Star Quilters holds a quilt show each year at the Dakota County Historical Society Museum in South St. Paul. Unlike most shows, our show stays up for over a month allowing you plenty of time to come visit our show. Our members contribute quilts for display and we usually have 100 pieces on display. There is an annual challenge project among the members, that visitors of the show can vote for their favorite one. Also shown are samples of charity projects the group has worked on and other hand crafted items.
A lecture and trunk show are scheduled during the quilt show and is free for current members to acquire tickets. Tickets are also available for purchase by the public.
