• Registration is limited to 20 participants. Each participant is invited to bring one quilt that they will discuss for five minutes. Light refreshments will be provided.

• To sign up, please email Laura Carden at cardenla1@hollins.edu with your name, email address, phone number, and type of quilt you’ll be bringing.
