July 2024

We celebrated summer with an indoor picnic and some games.

Sharon created her own version of Scattegories with a quilting twist- Quiltagories. We divided into groups and played several rounds. Winners received the fat quarters that were the “ante’ to play.

Show and Share

Cordell displayed three items: a purse, dress in which she used common household items such as dish drain for textile dye prints and a scrappy quilt which used three pairs of complementary colors. She commented on this improv piecing “this opened a door in my heart.”
