Quilting Project

The quilting project is held at the Fletcher's house, the first Thursday of each month, 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Ages nine and above. The project leader is Dana Fletcher.
Come make a raggy quilt, great for holidays or to match your room. Simple straight line sewing and quilting as you go, all stitched by machine.
