Tacoma Lakes October 3, 2018

Tacoma Lakes Quilters are winding down and only a few days before our quilt show. Lots of final details taken care of today ...it takes many hands and many hours to accomplish this feat.
 An excitement in the air!! 
We had 3 Demos that were excellent. Binding, Machine Maintenance, Wool Applique. I was thinking I did not need to learn anything new I had been doing it for years. But, you are never to old to learn some new tricks in quilting. A fun day as always!!
