Once again examples of the quilters’ art will fill historic Kirby’s Mill as the Medford Historical Society presents its 34th annual Quilt Show on Saturday, May 30th and Sunday, May 31st  from 10 am to 4 pm. The event features hand-made quilts, old and new, plus a boutique by the Berry Basket Quilters.  Again this year the Medford Historical Society will have tickets available for a raffle quilt.   Refreshments will be available. Admission & parking are free, although donations are welcome.  Historic Kirby’s Mill is located at 275 Church Road at Fostertown Road in Medford, New Jersey  08055.
