Thursday night, I attended my second guild meeting with the Alamo Heritage Quilt Guild.
It is a large group of friendly and welcoming people.
Kathy Smith presented a trunk of beautiful, machine embroidered quilts.
I also connected with Barbara Steers, who works with the Quilt of Valor group.
The Quilt of Valor first came to my attention by Abbie.
Check out Abbie’s blog.
She has great ideas.
After discussing dates with Barbara, I realized that I would not be able to attend any of the group sessions.
So, I will be making the quilt on my own, and Barbara will long arm quilt.
I can’t wait to get started.
In the meantime, I found some fabric in my boxes and decided I needed a granny bag.

I printed photos of my two youngest grandchildren and pieced them on the front pocket.
