The Kindred Spirits Quilt Guild’s Making my “Mistletoe in the Morning” BOM quilt!
We are Kindred Spirits quilt guild from Livonia, MI. We just started up again after Covid. We anticipate 30-40 members to rejoin.
Livonia, WI
In the past, there has not been a large turnout for the BOM, because it was too time consuming for many of the members. This pattern “Mistletoe in the Corner” caught my eye as it looked fun, versatile & cost effective for those members that are on a fixed income.
As you can see from the pictures (below) many members chose to participate! They all expressed the ease of the pattern, easy to understand directions & it has been fun to do. And, that is what we need, a little fun!
