Quilt Gardens Tour

The Elkhart County Convention and Visitor Bureau and Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer are partnering to raise funds for breast cancer research with the 2010 Quilt Gardens Tour. Diana Bennett, an acclaimed local artist, has created a 45-inch wall hanging using exclusive Vera Bradley fabrics, including “Hope Garden”. This original work made its debut at The Gathering of Quilters, and is now making its rounds at Vera Bradley retailers along the Heritage Trail.

At each Vera Bradley retailer along the Heritage Trail, you can purchase a $2 raffle ticket for a drawing to win the Interlocking Hearts Original Quilt Wall Hanging. One hundred percent of the raffle goes to support the Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer.
