Gentle Pursuits of Richmond EGA. Monday, April 7, 2014. March 2014 Ackworth Sampler Lecture.

Both Dee and Holly agreed that the best book is Quaker School Girl Samplers from Ackworth. The breadth and scope of Holly's collection is very impressive!

Gentle Pursuits of Richmond EGA: October 2013
http://gentlepursuits.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Gentle Pursuits of Richmond EGA. Monday, October 28, 2013. This is a somewhat belated post, but our annual Christmas in August class was once again a great success. Trisha Johnson did a crazy quilt ornament class for the group. Trisha pieced the fabric, leaving the embroidered seam treatments to us, and there was a choice of shapes. Lots of choices, which is always fun. Links to this post. There were some interesting items to share, especially the Halloween skirt made by Dee's mother many years ago.
