Folsom Quilt and Fiber Guild Show 2025 – Large quilt room

 

NOTE: I will probably miss another 2 weeks of both blog posts and newsletters. I will be in judge training next week and Empty Spools the following week. I’ll be baaaack! It is an exceptionally busy year.
ALSO: I’ve got two posts this week; you can view my post on my visit to the Valley Oaks Quilt Guild in Tulare, CA, here.
