to see all these beautiful quilters come together...We start off by doing a Block of the month. It will be fun to see the different blocks and how they choose to put them together. Some do not want to make a big quilt so they may be using their blocks to make runners, table toppers, mug mats and/or place mats.
A sewing day planned for Feb 12....
Congratulations. A new guild is born.
ReplyDeleteSincerest congratulations to La Guild Acadienne de Clare! Isn't it wonderful that technology allows your beginnings to be documented in such a way that future quilters can see their charter members at work. You look so happy. I feel great pride in your accomplishment Joan in bringing the quilters of your area together. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear how well it went. I know how excited you were! Congratulations on your new guild.
