Red and White Exhibit
When you are at the quilt show be inspired by the red and white exhibit to give you ideas to make a red and white quilt of your own for the 2020 40th Anniversary quilt show.
Step Stools Needed
I misspoke last night at the meeting. I should’ve asked for step STOOLS not ladders.
