Sherry Worley came and spoke to us about TAQG in March. She was able to explain all the ins and outs of the Texas Association of Quilt Guilds and the quilt show coming up in July. The show will feature Sue Nickels as the guest speaker and workshop. Sherry showed some of the "Nickel" quilts and members were able to work on making one. It looks like we will be ready to join in the excitement for the TAQG show! She also brought some fun mini quilts that are used to display the many pins that are collected by quilters.
The April was a rock'n jelly roll race. Everyone brought 2 1/2 inch strips from different fabrics and the race was on to see who could sew them into a lap top size quilt. We also had our raffle quilt drawing and our own Debi won the beautiful black and white quilt!
