The Quilt Walk Festival commemorates the brave men who, in 1864, used quilts to cross the mountains in deep snow and obtain flour to save the starving community of Panguitch.  The festival has something for everyone: a chocolate festival, quilt show and vendors, sewing and quilting classes, dinner theater, parades, games, historic home tours, and a heritage fair.  Join in the fun June 8th-11th, 2022
