Stitching
Our Way Through Arkansas
Grab your quilting friends and get ready for a fabric-filled trip through The Natural State.
The Natural State Quilt Trail brings together quilt shops across Arkansas for 17 days of fabric, inspiration, new discoveries, prizes, and plenty of reasons to hit the road.
Visit old favorites. Discover shops you have never explored before. Find fabric, patterns, notions, samples, and projects that make you want to head straight back to the sewing room.
The more participating shops you visit, the more prizes you are eligible to win.
Whether you spend a day hopping close to home, plan a weekend with friends, or set out to see how much of the trail you can cover, we would love to have you join us.
A Quilt Shop Road Trip Through Arkansas
There is something special about a good shop hop.
It is the fabric you did not know you needed. The quilt hanging on the wall that gives you a completely new idea. The shop you have been meaning to visit for years. The conversations with other quilters who understand exactly why you needed three yards instead of one.
The Natural State Quilt Trail gives you 17 days to explore participating quilt shops throughout Arkansas and enjoy everything that makes a shop hop worth the drive.
Bring your quilting friends, make a plan, and leave a little extra room in the car.
Make the Trail Your Own
You do not have to see Arkansas all at once!
Pick an area and spend the day hopping. Plan a weekend around several shops. Meet friends somewhere along the trail. Or challenge yourself to visit as many participating shops as you can before September 25.
Some towns have multiple participating shops, and others give you the perfect excuse to explore a part of Arkansas you may not visit often.
Our Shops page makes it easy to see participating shops by region and town so you can start building your route.
