More Fun in Cowanesque Valley!
On Monday, July 31st, a workshop was held at the home of Grace Schauer.  Ralph Wilston shared his vast knowledge of barn quilting and added a course in the making of quilts from beautiful hardwoods, to use as a wall hanging, a trivet or table decoration.  It was a beautiful day to be working outside!




Two guild members exhibit work at Genessee Valley Quilt Fest
Peggi Yacovissi and Anya Tyson are shown with their quilts at the Genessee Valley Quilt Fest this June.  Congratulations! Are you a guild member who has been accepted in an exhibit?  Send me a photo and I'll be happy to post it on social media.  Kate
