The Classroom is getting closer to completion!




As you all know by now, we are working on a new classroom at Quilter's Dream.  The cupboards are in, just waiting for the appliances & then we will be 100% ready to quilt, eat & enjoy!  Of course, not having it finished didn't stop us from using the new room.  Check out the pictures from our Mystery Quilt weekend with Jennie & Gail!

Gail & Jennie cutting their clues!

They had a wonderful time!  And the quilts looked great on Sunday afternoon!  Way to go girls!

We also had Marge and Cathy in for our Friday Day out!  They had so much fun they stayed for the night out!  Check out their projects . . .
