If you are in the neigbourhood of Deventer, from September 10-15, please come and visit the exposition in the Lebuinus Church. There will be 320 quilts to admire and number 234 is ours. During the exposition I will be also a first time "angel" on 3 days, so perhaps we will meet and have a nice chat with each other.

As a special treat for me, because I supplied her with the batting for her panel, she also has send me these beautiful fat quarters from her local quilt store in Wellington:
Thank you for your visit!
