 512. Evolution of Our Quilting Styles | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1852

Our staff is sharing stories of how their quilting style has evolved over the years.

Very rarely in this fast-paced world that we live in, do we take time to reflect on and appreciate our talents and to be proud of how far we’ve come, so we hope it inspires you to walk down memory lane, too.
