March 2016 Guild Meeting
Barbara Pershing and Mary Hoover from Fouth & Sixth Designs helped take the fear out of sewing curves with their discussion of using templates and just 2 pins to make Drunkard’s Path quilts. Their presentation included a trunk show of their curved-pieced quilts. Not to be outdone, guild members also presented a ‘truck show’ of their own fabulous quilts.
