Some members put the quilt together and our Suzanne Bryant quilted it on her long arm.
When we started this project, I had no idea what to expect. I am humbled by how awesome it is. Everyone stepped up to the plate with their talents and truly made it a piece to be proud of. As soon as some final details are ironed out, it will start traveling around the county for display during this bicentennial year.

and here's one that Kat S (me) did .................. I cut supersize blocks and made fast and fun work of this child quilt. I also cut up a kit of the same, for someone to take home and bring back finished next month, to receive a free yard of fabric.
