The second YHQG Community Quilts Workshop meeting was held on Tuesday, November 20, 2001, with Sandy Lindal as our 'quilter in residence'. Seven quilts were made from the 282 Liberated Log Cabin blocks created by our members from the workshop. As you can see, we had great fun putting the blocks together.
