Pam and her team lead the program.
Here she shows a quilted casserole carrier and hot pad
made in Tennessee's orange and white color scheme. |
When you hear the word, "quilt," your mind immediately visualizes something on the bed, in a crib or possibly on the wall. The program at the
Choo Choo Quilters March guild meeting,
"Quilted Things that are Not Quilts," was enjoyable and inspiring as much as it was surprising! A quilt that's not a quilt?? Hmmm...
Guild members brought in dozens of "quilted things" that were
not quilts... maybe a few you hadn't thought of... and possibly many more will come to mind after you see these.
