Subject: Last chance to view Chatham label quilt

A unique quilt fashioned from labels made in Chatham Mills makes its final summer showing on Sunday, September 5, between 1 and 3 p.m., at Pittsboro’s First Sunday. The well-used quilt, probably made in the 1940s, will be on display in the Chatham Historical Museum, 184 East Street, one and a half blocks east of the courthouse circle.

Fall exhibits will highlight the history of the Chatham County Courthouse, both before and after the still-standing walls went up in 1882. The museum is also open on Wednesdays from noon to 3 p.m. and by special arrangement (919 542-3603).

The Chatham Historical Museum is free and open to the public. Please stop by.
