WAG June meeting

The meeting was, as usual, fun and inspiring!  I always come away with a head full of ideas and excitement to get started on one of those ideas.  The challenge quilts were awesome, so much talent in our group.   Thanks ladies for being there!

Faces class online FYI

Drawing Faces on Fabric

I saw this and thought maybe it would be of interest to members of our group, since we have the Self Portrait challenge going on. It's at The Quilt Show website and free for star members, but the intro and first lesson are free for everyone.
