The 5 Yard Quilt was a class taught by Diane Bullard. We used a pattern provided by Doris Collins of the Fabric Carousel in Huntsville. It uses 5 one-yard cuts of coordinating fabrics. Quite a few people made them during the retreat, and we were amazed that they all looked so different! Beverly wrote, "We hope to have the members bring them to March meeting for show and tell." Above and below are the 5 Yard Quilts shown on Feb. 12. Above: left, Marijane; D middle, Cindy; and right, Connie. Below, Group 1.
