I’ll have demos so you can see just how easy it is to make perfect little circles for your Dresden plates!
Having the right tools makes all the difference in the world & we’ll have them all with us for your shopping pleasure.
I hope you’ll come visit us & see the nice show, take in some classes & lectures & get your quilts appraised too by my friend & AQS certified appraiser, Robin Koehler or other appraisal staff. You’ll need an appointment for appraisals.

Paper templates will be provided but the plastic templates are more fun & accurate to use.
Unfortunately Renee’s web store has just closed until the new year so that she & her hubby can get away for a few days, but if you have your heart set on them perhaps you can find them at your local quilt shop or another online shop.
