Hand Quilting




The February Program will be on hand quilting. Ann will bring several practice pieces of fabric for people to try their "hand". She asks that quilters bring a quilting needle, a thimble (if they have and use one) scissors and a hand held quilting hoop. Also, if you are hand quilting a project now, bring it for show and tell and/or helpful advise.

Just ask Alaine! She's come up with two terrific ideas and has been selling her wares on eBay.
Cashing in on the Webkinz craze, she is sewing sleeping bags and bean bag chairs for little critters.



Absolutely brilliant! A bobbin holder from elastic! Patent is pending.
