Spring is here, flowers are blooming, the days are longer and the colors are brilliant. After a brief business meeting, community service projects were shared - pillowcases for youth, quilts, bags and Christmas stockings for homeless and dog beds for shelters. Then the guild was updated on preparations for our Quilt Show - October 20-22, 2023, more details to come!
Below are examples of show and tell projects this month.
