Demo  
Rene did a demo of a Reduce, Reuse, Recycle quilt. This type of quilt is also called a Confetti or Ticker Tape quilt. Scraps were shared and a number of people choose that as their project to work on for Sew Day.

Show and Tell and Door Prize
Julie showed us two beautiful quilts she was making from a combination of commercial fabrics and clothing from her grandmother. The door prize was won by Barbara.
