Annual Del Norte Quilt-in 2013



This year the fabric is furnished from personal stashes.  Most of the fabric is quilt shop quality. All of the kits will vary due to limited availability.

This is a chance to learn quilting techniques from experienced quilt makers Barbara Gary and Bill Bayes. 

Current information is available at:
