Quilters Show Creations and Eat Candy At the Same Time

Last weekend, my quilt mini-group held its annual Christmas party.   Some members brought quilts they're finishing up, and you get a preview in this post.

Most of these quilts will be shown in "Voices in Cloth," the East Bay Heritage Quilters show on March 19-20 next year.












Here we are, quilters ranging in age from our early sixties to 93:

The No Problem Quilters, 2015.  Missing: Claudia, who took the photo, and Marion, who couldn't make it.  Visiting: Sue and Alice, daughters of our oldest member

On to the quilts.

Here's Ann's latest masterpiece:

Merry Christmas!
