LAKEPORT, Calif. – The 53rd quilt block has been installed on the Lake County Quilt Trail.

The 8-foot by 8-foot quilt block, titled “Friendship,” is located at 2101 S. Main St. in Lakeport.

It is the former building of Mackey Tire, which is now under new ownership.

The quilt block was sponsored by the Lakeport-Kelseyville Girl Scout Troop No. 10304.

The four members picked the colors for this “Friendship” design. They paid for the quilt block with earnings from selling cookies and fall products.

The “Friendship” quilt block was chosen to make the connection that the Girl Scouts organization is about building friendships and helping make our community a better place.

The Lake County Quilt Trail is an agricultural and tourism project designed to promote community pride.

The quilt block was drawn and painted by the Lake County Quilt Trail team, a group of dedicated quilters, graphic artists, painters, writers, carpenters and a videographer.
