Missouri Star Quilt Company

I've been poking around trying to figure out what I want to teach in the next quilt class (which is July 31st by the way) and I came across the Missouri Star Quilt Company blog.  There's this really GREAT video on a show called, "Turning Point" that's about the company.  I highly recommend watching the video.  Here's the link: Missouri Star: Turning Point
Drop me a line if you do watch it!  I wonder if you'll find it as moving as I did!  

There's still space in the Lucky Stars Quilt Class on May 14th.

We have 8 students enrolled in the Lucky Stars class! There's still space left if you want to join in!
