Southern Middle Tennessee Quilt Trail Website Online
The Southern Middle Tennessee Resource 
Conservation & Development Council sponsors the Southern Middle Tennessee Quilt Trail. This trail is a driving route throughout nine counties in southern middle Tennessee.
It is designed to draw visitors to the region and promote sustainable economic development in rural areas. The trail is designated by an 8'x8' quilt block mural hung on barns, agri-tourism and other sites of historical and economic significance.
Each route is carefully chosen for its potential to draw visitor traffic to the abundance of local businesses, artisanships, historic sites, educational opportunities and recreational activities this region has to offer. 
As the need for sustainable economic development in rural areas becomes more apparent, the Quilt Trail provides opportunities for community growth by promoting agri-tourism, creating community involvement and engaging residents in impacting their communities and protecting the heritage, cultural and natural resources of the region.
Currently the trail has ten quilt blocks hanging in seven counties, with more being added continuously. Soon Maury, Marshall and Moore Counties will have new additions.We invite you to view each and every quilt block site.
