Merry Christmas everyone! We had great fun eating all the yummy food and playing the left right game at our 2025 PTQ Christmas Party. We also got to see a bunch of beautiful quilts our members have made.
Pictures from the show and tell are below. I had to leave early and didn't get names of the quilts and such, but I am sure you can enjoy them just as well 😁. Thank you Amber for taking the pictures and getting them to me!
