February's Presentation and Show & Tell
This month saw a very interesting presentation on purses and bags made by Angela Lawson-Penney. Angela is a member of the Fredericton Quilt Guild and the Cotton Mill Quilt Guild and tonight she explained her process for purse and bag making that included many beautiful samples. Angela uses many conventional and unconventional materials in her process. Following are examples of Angela's work as well as our monthly Show & Tell.

Betty V. showed us her sweet butterfly bag and purses. Betty made the butterflies on her bag from left over triangles from other quilts.
