Sign-up at the September meeting for the
Sherrie Jaqua Workshop: The Fabric Made Me Do It
Wednesday, November 13, 2013
Take some of those “why did I ever buy that and what am I going to do with it” fabrics and bring them along to this workshop.  I will guide you through selecting a pattern and making use of border prints, panels, large print fabric, and pillow squares to make a simply stunning quilt.  Who doesn’t have fabric in their stash they simply don’t know what to do with and what better way to find out than in this entertaining learning experience. All levels of quilters are welcome.  $35 + possibly the cost of a pattern of your choice.







You can tell it's fall, can't you!
