CHEBOYGAN, MI -- Behind every quilt, there's a story.

More than 80 unique quilts will share their story at the Cheboygan Area Public Library throughout March.

Several members of the community have loaned their quilts to the library this month, which is also National Quilters’ Month, for people to check out.

It's the third year the library has had the quilts displayed, and each year, it keeps getting bigger.

"They remember from way back or they see the current styles, and they're all so different, they're just unique, they all have a story, and that's the cool thing," said Melanie Eno of the library.

Last year, more than 1,000 visitors visited the library to check out the quilts.

They'll be displayed until the end of the month.

Next year, the library hopes to expand the month-celebration by offering quilt-making demos.
