Tour the Appalachian Quilt Trail (AQT)

Welcome AQS Quilters! The AQT is a chance to experience the beauty and tranquility of Tennessee's historic byways. Take a hike on the Appalachian Trail, ride the rapids, cycle our scenic backroads, fish world-famous streams, birdwatch, or explore one of the largest underground caves in the country... Whatever your interests, there are an endless amount of things to do, places to stay, and events along the trail. Quilters and quilt lovers, there's something here for everyone in the family! Explore the Quilt Trail to find barn quilts but also, all manner of other attractions along the trail, marked by painted wooden AQT Heritage Quilt Squares.

Be sure to stop and visit us at the AQT headquarters in Rutledge, Grainger County, Tennessee, located along scenic Hwy 11w! Mark your calendars, come to East Tennessee for the 2009 Jonesborough Quiltfest and also, the American Quilters' Society Expo in Knoxville a week apart. Check the events calendar for dates and information more
