Girls Night Out at the Attic Window

We had a great time at Girls Night Out!

Wilma made fresh strawberries dipped in chocolate with pound cake and Lenora made these wonderful Angel Food Macaroons. (Recipe below)

Sally demonstrated how to make 3-dimensional flowers using  Heat 'n Bond and an iron.  Everybody went home with a sample.  What a great way to make flowers or leaves for a quilt or even children's clothes. 

The Attic Window showed all the new fabrics that came in and some of their samples out of the new fabrics.  Some of the Girls did show 'n tell on what they been working on or talked about an experience they had.  And we talked about the Mystery Quilt that everybody is doing.  Can't wait to see all the finished tops of their Mystery Quilt!

If you want to join Girls Night Out just give us a call and we'll give you all the details.  It's a great evening just getting together, sharing and laughing.  And we all need a good laugh once in a while.
