Strippers in a Blizzard Challenge

Because of last winter’s historical blizzard with record snowfall, we had to cancel our workshop, Strippers Mystery with Gyleen X. Fitzgerald.  These quilters put their fabric choices to good use in the Strippers in a Blizzard Challenge and presented them following Gyleen’s program which was rescheduled for our September meeting.
