April 4, 2011 - David Taylor
David Taylor had everyone in stitches with his fabulous talk, slides and trunk show. If you missed it, treat yourself to a tour of his website. It was one tough act to follow, but our Guild members came on strong with a wonderful showing of quilts...

*This volunteer photographer apologizes for any confusion ... but she was so mystified, she totally lost track of which quilt belonged to which quilter. And the Show-n-Tell list wasn't much help once all those mysteries started multiplying! We do know, however, that Dorene Hunter of Patchwork Garden Chapter spearheaded this proliferation in a recent class, apparently held in a Mysterious Location. Many thanks for sharing some of the results go to: Emilie Denmeade and Nancy Oberliesen, Lake Miona, as well as to Ruth Chary and Kathy Howe, Patchwork Garden.
**Just when we thought we'd ironed it out, the Charity Baby Quilts started multiplying, too. Wow. What a wonderful Guild we all belong to -- many thanks to Judy Hanley, Elaine Koebernik and Janet Schler.
