JoAnn Hoffman Workshop November 5th
We will be hosting a JoAnn Hoffman workshop on November 5th from 10 am to 4 pm. The cost will be $35 plus supplies. Come and spend the day with us as JoAnn Hoffman shares her tips and tricks. You can work on any of JoAnn's patterns. She will be here to help you. We will have kits for sale or you can bring one that you have started and just need some help. We are limiting the class to 8 students so JoAnn can give all students personal attention.

New BOM Starting in January
Click to see the star of this show, Meadow, by Wing and a Prayer Designs. We are working on the sample now and it is beautiful. This quilt is a non-traditional art-style project featuring dogwood appliqué nestled in the quilt center. Basic pieced 8” blocks blend the lights into darks forming two shadowy corners. The overall effect is a stunning asymmetrical design.
