May Guild Lesson







We had a great guild lesson last night. "Ask the Experts" was conducted by Kathy Repnow and Diana Shull. tonights discussions were on batting, re-drafting a block to a smaller size, cleaning machines, using brown tone threads for sewing seams and some tricky sewing suggestions. Thanks to our non-experts... remember you have to live over 50 miles and carry a brief case to be an expert.
