Ladies Enjoy Quilt Retreat

8 months ago By Joan Ivy
The Wednesday morning sewing group at Flatonia Baptist Church took off to finish the big project they have been working on with my help. Nancie Blair and I along with Tricia Griste and Marian Tajchman all traveled to Corpus Christi to enjoy a few days of sewing fun at Kim Bonewald’s beach house. The group was working on the large version of By Annie’s “Two Big Totes.” The group finished up the bags with just a little help and were very proud of their efforts. The bags were all beautiful.
