In Search Of

Plans are to add a "tips, tricks and favorite techniques" section to the resources page when the site gets it annual face lift in October. Have a technique you learned that makes a quilting task easy, a tip for simplifying assembly or getting perfect seams? Share the tips with others by submitting them to Dana, either via e-mail or in writing. Be sure to include your name and the source of your idea, if you know it.

Looking for a pattern, a book, an issue of a magazine, fabric, a resource, help with a project? Send your request to Dana Mason for posting.

Replies to "In Search Of" postings should be made to the individual. Their contact information can be found in the guild membership roster.
