Trunk Show to start the New Year...January 4, 2010

Apache Junction quilter, Janet Real, will be sharing about 20 quilts with us. She does beautiful applique work, often without pattern, only working from a photo she sees. She has also rescued several quilts which were completed halfway. What a gift! It will be a treat to see her work.
