After the Landrum City Council officially approved development of the Foothills Quilt Trail at its February 2012 meeting, the next step was to create a logo.
The trail’s logo, inspired by the quilt block Moon Over the Mountain, captures the summer beauty of the foothills with its myriad of greens under a bright blue sky.  Internationally-recognized quilter Georgia Bonesteel made the Moon Over the Mountain design a favorite with quilters during the quilting revival of the late 70s.   Bonesteel remains a member of the Landrum Quilters, which she co-founded in 1980, known then as the Landrum Library Quilt Club.
Graphic designer Wanda Wofford created the logo in collaboration with a team from the Landrum Quilters. The Landrum City Council provided funding for the Foothills Quilt Trail logo and for a website, which is under construction.
Landrum Quilters meet on the second Thursday at 9:30 a.m. at the Gowensville Community Center and on the fourth Monday for a bee, same time and place.
