In April Paula Ulrich, Ellen Servidea and Carol MacMullan,
attended the third guild sponsored Beginning Basics of Quilting
(BBQ) Workshop and the second one held at the home of Kate
Holdgreve. Paula, Ellen and Carol are all new guild members and
new quilters. They spent the week concentrating on fabric selection,
accurate measuring, cutting and piecing. By the end of the week
they had pieced 7-9 traditional blocks, put them into either
a wall hanging or table runner. Finally, they quilted their projects.
A good time was had by all. Submitted by Kate Holdgreve, Workshop
Leader. View
Slide Show of the Workshop. Close the slide show window

Don't Forget... Ann Ochs, our Library Chair, maintains a list
of all the books, DVDs, and videos in our Library. That list
is available online on the Library
page and it is updated quarterly. So, check
it out!
