June Classes



Bigfork Quilts, Etc.
June, 2014 Classes

Hello,

 We are looking forward to a great summer here in Bigfork. There are always so many things to do and see, company coming and going and outdoor projects. But remember to take some time for yourself to work on quilting projects and learn something new.
 We have some exciting classes this month and you might notice that some of our regular classes are not mentioned this time. Twisted Fibers and Mary’s Hand Quilting are cancelled for June. We will resume them later in the summer so rest easy.

Blessings,
Sandi
