Christmas in July:

Presenters gave us lots of great ideas for Christmas decorations and gifts.

Darlene Bishop and Lois Hinkle: Postcards

Fabric postcards are a fun new trend in quilting and everyone seems to be making them. Darlene and Lois brought some of the ones they had made to show us. They recommended some patterns, available at Sew What in Wytheville (www.batiks.com)  and from Sew Thankful a New Mexico online quilt shop (www.sewthankful.com).
