PROGRAMS - headed by Geri
- At our March sew day, we will be sewing the Noodlehead Market Tote from the Handmade Style book by Anna Graham.
The evening's program was a slideshow of pictures of a favorite quilt (or two) shown at QuiltCon. Lynn asked each person who sent a picture to say why they chose the quilt as their favorite.
