A Quilting Bee -Workshop 12-28-17 @ 9:00am

Quilting with paper "scraps" really is an easy challenge, in that there is no raveling, stitching, pokey pins or heaven forbid, ironing! My Mom was an avid quilter- so was her Mother- I fell in love with this quilting! The dies are perfect to work your squares and designs with, and the pieces shown are all made with discontinued DSP! We should use our scraps!
In workshop, everyone's pieces should come out different.... the double-sided prints make many combinations!
